Jeff Kerkove sucks. He sucks up all the sponsorship and free stuff that should go to people who actually get results. And he tries to live in the “social media” realm of Pro racing, case in point here. His only recent win is chasing down a SSer that kicked his butt in VT125 on everything except the flat run home. A couple years ago. Why is this guy sponsored?
Looney is the real deal though, but I’m afraid recently wrongly influenced by Kerkove into doing dumb enduro stuff she shouldn’t. But glad to see her doing Leadville this in a week’s time. Can she hang with Rebecca? Let hope she can.
@Whatever Really man? Not sure what the issue is. Podiums or not, I really enjoy following Jeff and Sonya. They are damn good peeps, who kick ass! I really like the XC folks (Todd Wells, JHK, etc) as well, but you don’t see them racing in Nepal or on the CTR. That, is more interesting to me than 6 laps on a 5 mile course!
