From CRtwotwo Twitter Page:

FYI at this time I have zero interest in putting someone on my bike. Benefit to cost ratio doesn't even come close to making sense...

What a racer, what Aussie couldn't follow his carreer and admire the bloke.
Bloody dissappointing end to the season for Chad.

Personally I can't fathom that these guys (for the most part) don't wear neck-braces and armour? I know they don't crash as much as the unwashed masses, but you don't have to be going fast (see Danny Chandler's crash)to completely f;;k yourself up, and these guys are absolutely flying

There is a lot of debate among the Pro riders about the pros and cons of kneck braces, many believe kneck braces have been the cause of some serious injuries and some think the kneck brace caused the severe injuries to Andrew MacFarlane.
You will see that a lot of the top US riders no longer use them.

RD#5 was the first that I noticed, no armour either.

If he was to put another guy on his bike, Justin Barcia seems to have a lot of natural ability in the outdoors. He would be my pick if I could steel him away from Geico. There is something about this guy that says future superstar to me, I like his style on and off the track and think he has a very bright future!
