Maybe the pace/safety car will keep him from getting injured.

It's not a safety car, it's a safety bike! Hey, wait a minute... Buell's out of business. Guess they have to go back to the safety car. Probably will be a Yugo with Edmondson driving.
Hope Hopper stays out of it's way. [moto]

You want irony? I watched Faster again the other day. Remember when John Ulrich says that John Hopkins might be the second coming of Kevin Schwantz??

I wonder if he never got a chance to really shine (injuries, uncompetitive rides, etc.), or if he's just not alien material?

You've seen him smile. You're sure those things are made of this Earth?

Nope...
he's a professional rider.
I'm an amateur keyboard jockey.
He still will
never
beat the fab four...that's all this bs is about...not whether we can keep up with him.

I did once, I cut underneath him at Goddards and pipped him by wheel at the line. Then I woke up and ate a hearty breakfast.
