He's gonna race that bike to glory! Perfect finger action on those levers! -- I wish my TC bikes had the number 28 on their plates
I'm not gonna put him up with Mikkola just yet but I'm down with Rattray... -- Q: Tyla, great to have you back in Europe. What made you return? Rattray: Obviously I got a good deal to ride the new Husqvarna. I had some other options to stay in America, but my career started in Europe in 2000, it is where I started making a name for myself and I always wanted to return. I think it is a good step in my career to come back and try and win an MX1 title. Q: You in 2008 and Pourcel in 2006 are the only guys to beat Antonio (Cairoli) for a World title in the last nine years. What is it going to take to win a World MX1 Championship? Rattray: Obviously you need a good off-season and come into the season in good shape. I want to come in as strong as I a can. The weather in Europe doesn’t make for good training in the winter, but with me being in America and riding so much I have learnt a lot about fitness and training. The racing is totally different racing in American compared to Europe, but I am really looking forward to coming back to Europe.
