Review: Nice to see a decently-researched story on motorcycle roadracing, which is the fastest-growing motorsport in the world right now. One important financial point you missed was that the sales of MotoGP merchandise last year DWARFED the overall worldwide sales of any motorsport-related merchandise franchise, including NASCAR and even Formula 1. It's funny how so much financial media coverage goes into NASCAR, yet their attempts to export that motorized form of "professional wrestling" to other countries have failed miserably. Meanwhile, motorcycles reach across all spans of societal income brackets in every country (unlike Formula 1) in the world. Something to think about as a globalized economy continues to expand.

Review: Soooo good to see this on a Web pub. But let's take it one step further and see it printed as well. MotoGP is the next mainstream event, much like freestyle MX is now. Excellant article and it put me back at "Turn 1," hearing the roaring go by at 200+ mph. Nice work!

Review: It's so great to see some two-wheel action. It brings some raw edge to the magazine. I was lucky enough to be one of the many screaming fans at Laguna this year and would like to compliment Doyle on his well-rounded coverage. Keep up the great work.

Review: THANK YOU...THANK YOU...THANK YOU !!!!
It's so nice to see somebody give decent coverage to the MOTO-GP and especially to the US Rnd. You couldn't believe my disgust with US sports journalists in this country who slept on this story. The Pinacle of M/C Road Racing returns to the US--with two of our own riders finishing 1st & 2nd beating the man who will go down as the greatest Road Racer of all time - and nothing. ZIPPY COVERAGE! Not even a blurb on ESPN. JERKS!Oh they'll let us know who won the Little League World Series or Beach VolleyBall title. But let's skip this one. My only regret is that you guys did not write about the event as it was upcoming. But hey, I forgive you. You're BW Online, not a Sports media outlet. I suspect you have contacts in the sports media. Please pass on to them a big SHAME ON YOU CLOWNS! from us in the m/c racing community. We may not be mainstream, but our sport is serious, takes talent & guts, and deserves some coverage once or twice a year!

Review: Great story. I really enjoyed it. This sport is so exciting to watch and the images of those daredevils on the bikes is spectacular. I also find it really fascinating how much money is behind these teams. I took your suggestion and I am now going to TiVo all the races. Enjoyed the read. Keep it up!
P.S.
