Bubba and Reed don't really have much competition. Those guys were soooo far ahead of everyone else by the end of the race.
Reed is wicked fast and very smooth.
Bubba is also wicked fast, but appears to be riding on a razor's edge. He man-handles that bike at will. It's amazing how close he comes to the hay bales after landing a triple. His whips are downright scary, especially with mid-air traffic.
As the first rider out during opening ceremonies, Tyler Evans shoots out of the tunnel riding a wheeling. Lights are low, spot light is on him. He drops the front wheel down then gets on the gas.... braaaappp!!! braaaaaaph!!.... BAM!!! Crosses a small berm/track divider and endos over the bars big time into some track banners. The crowd cheers and he takes a bow.
I saw a hot version of Cortney Cox step out of Reed's RV. It's good to be Chad Reed.
