I'm sad to see him go, but the timing feels right.

I second that... it's a good time for him to retire.
I'd love to see him as the commentator for motogp/wsbk.

I read an interview of him, in an Italian sports news site, where it is clear that he has been affected a lot by Simoncelli's death.
Things which you do not forget, and stay in your mind forever. His, and even worse VR's, which was Marco's close friend.

CE would be a highly qualified, insightful and very, very entertaining commentator.
Always had a soft spot for him since he's half Aussie. They'd be crazy not to offer him a job.
Half Aussie + half Texan = entertainment.

He may be a bit too truthful for the job, at least as far as the official folks are concerned.
Personally, I think he'd be awesome.

+1 on him probably being an awesome commentator
I read an article about his motorcycle training camp which was dirt track on little XR's.
Looked like a blast.

Turn him loose on the TV audience along with Scott Russell! It's be a hoot!

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori. Good people drink good beer. Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.
It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level. Everything else is just fluff.
