I think Cal was more referring to the previous year or so on the Ducati. Personally I think that now that the Duc' is working Horhay won't be as adrift as previously. Top 6 worst case.

The only thing you'd be ripping off is the cover of a lemon meringue pie and stuffing it down your gullet. Save the internet badass persona for someone else who might actually believe it pieboy.

Can't stand all this hating and insulting.
I'm off out until things get classier in here.
Enjoy Assen y'all
I will indeed. You can be sure I won't be taking a computer to the track. We got the VIP passes and planning to mingle baby!:wavespin:

First you, presume that anything said by either party is or is not true.
Second, either way, two wrongs don't make a right.
In case it's slipped your notice, you are slandering members left and right.
Maybe you need to step back, take a week off and get things in perspective.

Multiple sources confirmed this Wally.
Haven't slandered anyone. Kesh has, keep deflecting.
We seem to have progressed from the Rossi haters forum to the everyone hates everyone forum, and to have become a MotoGP forum where actually posting about gp bike racing is anathema and evidence of cowardice. I would have thought the actual would be internet tough guy is the guy who boasts of being so btw, who is somewhat lost in terms of his habitual narrative where bike racing is concerned currently given Jorge’s resurgent form.
If that is what you guys want, fine, but excellent posters about bike racing, old and new, seem to be departing daily. I myself have stated my position on the issue of contention several times, but begin to see not much point in posting if the only acceptable way of doing so is to preface any post by an affirmation that Kesh is a prick.
Kesh and Jumkie, and to make it very clear I have always been on Jumkie’s side in regard to that historical incident in 2008, are not the ones keeping the current toxic debate going.

Thus far, all hearsay. As far as I have been able to tell (correct me if I am wrong)
not one of the "sources" you rely on, were actually at the event,
and none of them have ever met either of the two persons involved.
A bad case of Chinese telephone. I tried several searches and can find no
thread where the alleged insult to someone's family occurred.
One begins to wonder if the whole family insult is a product of
Jumkie's imagination. Can you find any evidence of said insult?
Or do you just take Jum's word for it? Think on it. You I believe
may be better with search function. I can't find anything to
support all this argy bargy.

I’ve never been a fan of Scott Redding but this article is really sad and really makes you feel for the guys who don’t make it. They pour their entire existence into becoming the next big thing ,making millions and living the international playboy life. Here he is at 25, can probably squeeze a living out of riding bikes for a few more year but reality has hit home that he has a long life ahead and is not prepared for life outside the track. To here a young man say “ I’m dumber than ....... and I know it” is kind of depressing.

Agree. It's like the basketball syndrome for guys who never finish high school and pin all their hopes and dreams on becoming the next MJ. Seems to me with good sponsorship, he could still make a decent living in WSBK or BSB. I seem to remember guys who were not really in the top tier doing pretty okay in AMA Superbike, if they were smart and put some money aside, and maybe partnered up with a good bike shop or something along those lines. Tho a lot of guys I remember who went pro and looked to be really successful often proved to be the sons of a fairly wealthy family. Being not too bright, isn't such a big surprise. Most of the guys I remember when doing the AMA-CCS races were pretty much ....-kickers or suburban kids who never finished high-school. Not a lot of college grads in the paddock. I never finished high-school myself. I was just lucky enough to start a small business that did alright. I always kinda assumed back in the day there was a good chance I would end up broke like a lot of my friends eventually did.

Agreed
Scott is a good racer and, by all accounts good at providing feedback so may cut it in development. It's easy to forget how young he is, so he may just have been down in the dumps. I hope he keeps his chin up though, confidence cannot be over stated in it's importance for a young rider.
Besides I left home at 16 and joined the army and look at me now, a middle-aged bald dude hanging out on the internet.
Oh wait...............

Oh the irony.
This is the garbage that you posted because I said someone did well in a Moto3 race in this thread, Aragon 2016 . I didn't even say who won, and I did not know about YOUR "rules".
You are one of the worst people here with your nasty and pointless attacks.
Yeah, and you with some help from others have worked very hard at turning this place to an juvenile insult playground. Congratulations on your success.
I don't even know which thread to post in concerning actual racing, and whether it will last anyway. My apologies to others who just want to get on with the racing. The hypocrisy from JKD was just too much for me.

So I take it you were present when all this came to the fore? You have met both parties in the flesh and can give eyewitness testimony? Or, can you provide a link to the thread where the alleged insulting of family occurred? Because I have searched the relevant threads several times now trying to ascertain the truth and could find no post where Kesh said squat about anybody’s family. So, link please. I’m a born skeptic and find no evidence of this now mythical bit of blasphemy. I have seen too many examples of people mindlessly repeating .... they were told on the internet.

MDub and JK were among those who were at that week-end to which I was invited but was not sufficiently organised, as is somewhat my wont, to attend.
Roger who was the biggest poster on here and pretty much put his whole life on here basically realised he should never have subjected his life, and particularly his family, to the scrutiny of random anonymous strangers of possibly dubious intent on the Internet. The precipitating post was not by Keshav but by a past poster who was an absolute ........ (? Zut alors), but it all blew up and Keshav lost his temper as I certainly do myself at times and some personal stuff from the contact in person at that Laguna Seca race weekend came out on the forum. I think he and Roger had clashed in person over the Rossi Stoner thing, which was of anything more intense than the Rossi MM thing now.
MDub is a good guy (particularly for a Rossi fan, I don’t use smilies) and an astute observer of the sport to whom I again apologise for past misjudgements. Otherwise I will only say I pretty much agree with Barbedwirebikers recent post.
Quite frank and realistic statements from Scott Redding. This is the land of dreams and Mr. Redding has had a good run. Same as it ever was in the sport and entertainment world, you either do or don’t and if you don’t, get out of the way. Always room at the top for one more.
I suppose I look at Scott and then see guys podiuming (if that's a word) in WSBK and i can't help but think that he is at their level, (on the right machine of course)
