Gavin Trippe
R.I.P., Gavin. You didn't suit up
and compete on the track, yet you
were instrumental in bringing so
much to the sport, and to the fans.
Stephen Farenell
What a shock! Gavin and Bruce
(Cox) did so much for the sport.
When I first came out to the
west coast in 1973 they were so
welcoming and fun and open.
We have been friends for 45
years. Great guy, I still can't
believe it.
Dick Lague
R.I.P. Gavin - so much that you
accomplished, within just a few
years, has resounded across
the decades. You definitely
made your mark on both sides
of The Pond.
Curt Relick
Major bummer. I am so glad
that I got to meet Gavin. He and
Bruce were the men that got
major motorcycle racing going
in the USA.
Thanks to both of you.
R.I.P. Gavin.

Musquin has really stepped his
game up compared to his early
years here in the States. He was a
two-time World champ in the 250s
but struggled to be a top-five rider
when he first came here.
He may not have Tomac's
raw speed, but he isn't far off.
No other American is close to
him except Barcia. Hoping Eli
can take the championship but
he can't have any more bad
results whether it's mechani-
cal or crashes. If it weren't for
[Tomac], Musquin would be
dominating.
If Tomac, Barcia and Pless-
inger are healthy at the end of
the season, they could be the
world's number-one team at the
des Nations.
Terry Heath
Ten motos to go and it now
game on! Anything can happen
from here.
It's now almost a five-race
series. Should be interesting.
Adam Wright
Curtiss Zeus E-Cruiser
An electric Rokon. Without a
doubt the ugliest bike I've ever
seen and only 30k.
Bruce Oberg
The Zeus has inspired me to
throw wheels on my refrigerator.
