HA! The supermoto at x-games would have been better had Burkhart not had issues but let me chest thump just a little!
I did the Red River Shootout Supermoto Last Sunday on a 104* day! Top 5 too and I'm a grandfather and the most of these guys were half my age! I'm afraid that many of the racers at x-games would have had issues with the heat!
Of course I started hydrating last Friday too!!!!

Most all the X-games suck
As an X-company owner and supplier of X-games users products, the people involved in the X-games are all egotistical arse kissers at best.
I now refuse to even watch them anymore
Can you tell I am bitter about Extreme Sports in general !!!

Congrats on the result - especially with beating the "kids".
When I was competing in dancing, I was quite often up against 16-17 year olds. For a while they used to give me lip and attitude about my age, until I would wait until the perfect opportunity would arise to line them up, shirtfront them and sit them on their arse (who said ballroom dancing was not a contact sport....) It can be fun being a grumpy old man sometimes.

Nice going dunedain. Way to whoop up on the youngsters. I can't watch most of the xgame stuff. The racing OK. The jumping halfpipe stunt stuff??? Might as well be watching figure skating or gymnastics. Who cares if some dude or gal can jump a bike and make pretty in mid air??
