You guys just don't like to hear the real truth is all. No PMSing here, just stating some facts. If I rode everyday and practiced every day and trained everyday I know that I still wouldn't be fast enough to be a Professional MX rider because I don't have the natural ability level to start with that puts me close enough to the speed needed to be one today. People don't understand it, you are born with a certain amount of ability, and with practice, training, and hard work, you can improve a small amount. With partying, no training, and no work at all, you can slow yourself down a little bit too. But your range from your peak to your valley is your range no matter what you do and the professional athletes of today are the people with the highest natural range of the spectrum. Simple as that. The Tedder family has a pretty fast natural range as far as racers go. On top of that, the family has an abundance of money, which allows them to put more time and be at their peak all of the time than the rest of us and we're jealous.
The fastest guys have always been the fastest guys from the time they are little bikes until they were on big bikes and in the pros. And guys that were faster than you when you were 11 are most likely going to be faster than you when you are 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 as you go through the Vet classes, so you might as well have fun with it if you're not fast enough to make a living at it.
It has nothing to do with me, what I've done, or anything else. It's a natural ability that you have or don't and it shows at an early age if you start early. I never made any claims to be fast, better than anyone else, or put down anyone else anywhere in here. I'm just stating my opinion based on facts as I see them, which apparently you can't do unless you're from the 440! Oh wait, I'm from the 440..... so I guess I can.
