It is insane to watch a guy like Todd Waters, the 2020 Australian Motocross Champion, ride a dirt bike, but even he has to bow to today’s top GP riders like Jeffery Herlings.
It is then ever crazier to hear stories of Dutchman Jeffery Herlings being 10 seconds a lap faster than he and other MXGP riders at practice tracks.
Is Herlings the MX Goat (Greatest Of All Time) right now? Todd Waters certainly seems to think so.
And American legend Ryan Hughes has a whole-scene view of it all.
He reckons there will never be another American world champion.
