Salminen training, TE250

Check out this video of Juha, less than a month ago here in Spain:

Has this guy ridden a 250 4t before in the past? ...

Lot of small bore championships...Juha=Yoda haha.

The new bikes sound really good!

Is it me or does this bike sound different. It sounds to me like his motor spins up super fast (like TC flywheel) and also when it's on the pipe there is a different note out of the silencer. Could be imagining it as well. Also could be that he weights 50lbs less than me.

In mid-2006 he showed for the ISDE Qualifier in Westpoint, TN on a 2007 KTM 250 XC-F. Won overall that weekend. Went on to the ISDE in New Zealand and won that too.

Pretty impressive with that string of #1s across that table ... Age 34 ... He should have some juice left I think

And when he was at WP (in sunglasses)

I collected his autograph:

Juha at 2010 Mexico ISDE.

I thought he was riding the pre production 2t? this year

Rumor was (is) Meo will be on the new 2t at some point ... It is probably a reasonable guess to think Juha wants nothing to do with a new \ prototype machine .... ( at least in the near term and maybe ever )

Last news are that the 2T prototypes are being developed by Guillaume (But Oblucki was also riding a WR 2T these days in Spain, so...)

Meo is supposed to ride in E2 with the TE310
