Hey everybody, welcome to Riders meeting. We're going to be covering the Detroit round of the Supercross series this year.

I'm David Pingree. I'm your host here. joined by Bruce Marotta as always and a special guest,

multi-time supercross champion and motocross badass Mr. Chad Reed. Reedy, thanks for joining us, man.

Yeah, I'm stoked. Just driving home from a long weekend at the track, my own cell.

Yeah, you become a full-time moto dad, man. So you're starting the cycle again.

Yeah, yeah, doing it all over again. Get to see it from a different angle. So it's fun.

That's awesome, dude. I love to see that. And you've always been so just honest and genuine in your thoughts and kind of calling it like you see it.

And I appreciate that more and more.

And anyway, stoked to get your take on what's going on.

And these shows are brought you by Rock and Turth and make the very best artificial grass if you're into that.

They also make some really cool mats for your trailers and RVs for changing and just keeping dirt out of your rigs. And if you need landscape, hardscape, they do it all rock and turf landscape.com.

And also by Maxis Tires, check out their full line of light duty truck tires.

We appreciate their support.

So let's start with the 250 class here. Obviously, the opener for the east, and there was a ton of guys who were in this mix.

And boy, about more than half of them went down in a pile on the first turn.

Rieieie, what did you think of that?

And were surprised we didn't get a red flag?

I mean, yes and no.

I think that, you know, when you understand the back end of everything,

as far as like TV windows and all that kind of stuff,

the fact that it was a day race, we were primetime, you know, I think that there's a lot more

challenges than there used to be.
