To Ping from Chuff

I saw that Ben Townley is scheduled to race the USGP at Glen Helen at the end of this summer. I know you are a BT fan so how do you think he’ll do after all this time off?

To Chuff from Ping,

I was pretty stoked when I heard BT was coming back to the States to do some racing. I’ll admit I tend to fan-girl a little when he’s around, but I love his riding style, his determination, and his character; he’s just a good dude. His career, while still impressive, could have been absolutely legendary if he could have stayed healthy. I know that’s like saying I could date a supermodel if only I were taller and better looking, but the fact is that Ben had limitless potential. I have a bet with Tyler Keefe, the current TLD team manager, that Ben will be top ten at Glen Helen. I realize that might seem crazy to some, but I know what that boy is capable of doing. He won the last GP moto there when he rode for me, and I know he’s still got speed. Maybe I’m just googly-eyed about the whole deal, but I think BT is going to do the #101 proud. If not, I’ll be there to give him an awkwardly long hug and tell him it will all be okay.
