CN III VOICES L E T T E R S T O T H E E D I T O R "KTM stands for Keeps Taking Money! How can they keep making bikes that are so tempting?" Blame Game Not much of a Barcia fan but that (crash at Genova Super- cross) was on Pourcel. Not sure if he intentionally moved over on Barcia or not but either way, Justin is lucky that his injuries weren't worse given the rider landed on his side. Gregory Eddinger via the Internet Blame nothing on nobody. This is part of the game being a motocross racer. I'm glad to see protective gear did its job and that Justin Barcia is okay. I have raced desert for 20 years—I know all about getting hurt. I no longer race. I work in the O.R. in a hospital now. Robert Wolf via Facebook Fast Indians Great work all around guys! I grew up in a family of accom- plished motorcyclists. My ava- tar pic is my grandpa George on his '39 Indian Chief (with Vard fork conversion) during a winter enduro run on the Ft. Lewis military base reservation in the early 50s. Grandpa is not around anymore, but I know he'd be so proud to finally see a company that has faithfully brought Indian back properly. No more cons, poseurs or companies making Harleys with an Indian logo on the tank, just an honest effort and real results from a solid company that has definitely made it happen in a big way. John A. Stockman via the Internet Freeride Fan Great, I just bought a new XC 250 for me and a new Husky 250F for the missus, and now this! With the new RC 390, KTM stands for Keeps Taking Money! How can they keep making bikes that are so tempt- ing? What's next, an ADV bike based on their awesome 690 Enduro? Too much to ask for. Meanwhile, I have a few Japa- nese bikes for sale. Cheryll Green Wurst via the Internet Flat Track 2015 Happy to see Castle Rock (Washington) on the 2015 Flat Track schedule! Great news for NW enthusiasts. All we need is for MotoAmerica to bring in their hands and minds of excel- lence into the Flat Track family of two-wheel racing—after they continue to clean house from the DMG hoarders that used to live there! John A. Stockman via the Internet Honda Thanks McGrath McGrath is and always will be the King of Supercross! I'm a diehard Honda fan myself, but it's going to be interest- ing to see him shred a green machine. Wish he didn't retire— he's still fast on the track. Showtime 4 life! Mike Shepherd via the Internet What a bunch of B.S. from Honda. Something is going on here. First they pull out of Baja, now McGrath's leaving and no support in EnduroCross. Hmm. Gotta make a person think of what old Honda is up to! Robert Davis via the Internet Letters to the editor can be sent to voices@cyclenews.com.
