They should invite Ricky, James, Chad, Vilapodo, and the rest of the old guard to a race tour. Hell, they would get more spectators than AMA supercross!
It would have to be a 3 lap race. RC lasts a lap before he's done. Watching him on the triumph at smx I could tell he was over it after the 2nd turn. I wonder how stew rides, or if he just golf's now.
Man this is so freaking awesome to see and Thank you for sharing this video with us and it brings back so many memories of him and still A LEGEND #22 #ChadReed
I always thought it was weird watching your heroes grow up and get older right in front of you. Like watching your favorite movie star at his prime and then when he gets a lot older, it just feels weird. I’ve watched a lot of people grow up to the point where you don’t even recognize them anymore. Getting old sucks it’s all I can say. To all you younger people out there, you must enjoy your youth cause it flies by quickly. If you haven’t made a good life for yourself at an earlier year. You can spend the rest of your days just wishing for a second chance to do it differently. Speaking to all from the heart and experience. Make your youth really count. And try not to let down the ones you love. I wouldn’t blabber on if I didn’t care about people.✌️🙏💯🤙🇺🇸🙌👊👍👌✊☝️
This is a bad take. Getting old is a gift that comes with wisdom. Guarantee Chad had just as much fun doing this with his family as he did racing a national. Getting older gives you perspective on what really matters in life. Don’t fuck these kids over by making them romanticize youth. Youth culture is already out of control. My sister turned 30 and wanted to end her life. That’s fucking ridiculous there’s so many good times to be had in all stages of life. I’m tired of seeing comments like this.
Excellent content once again from Matt Burkeen!!! Was just watching the two stroke race in California - then Supercross and now this race...it just gets better and better. Love this channel!
Chads going to be own new Mike Brown. As in being retired but still kicking ass. Any rider that gets older and still wins, that’s pure raw talent. A person can’t replace riding for any other sport. Not once you get that feeling that motocross can give you. It’s irreplaceable unless you have a family.🤙🇺🇸💯🙏✌️🙌
Reed has been at Dade City racing cash races against all the up and coming 250 & 125 championship kids. He could go out and qualify and pull top 15 in an outdoor national race, right now in 450’s. Nobody really wants to bang bars with a 200# Chad Reed.
I agree it should be like boxing, but everyone that races in his class will always remember that one time they got to race Chad Reed. Everyone around them will know it too.
@@mattburkeen820 awesome interested to see how far he goes, apparently wanting to go pro and his dad one of the best to do it so big expectations id imagine
Chad does just have AMA TITLES in the modern 4 stroke era today...he lead all current riders with his podiums total...his got more podiums even then mcgrath his hero....an the current guys Tomac just caught RC an are tied for podiums...an chads well ahead of rick an tomac....
Lake sugar tree in axton virginia is where i started going to gary baily when i was on a 60cc backnin 1994. Back then was the sickest, most dangerous, unforgiving bad ass track in the AMA
Unlike supercross, MX nationals could easily implement more races like vets/ 40+ or even add a 250 2 stroke race similar to the old days when they had a 500cc open class
For the dummies that don’t know the rules of Loretta’s, anyone who has a pro license cannot race. I think there’s a two year clause or something like that. So yes Reed or any ex pro can race if they qualify at the area and regional qualifiers. This qualifier was the easy Area qualifier that gets you to the Regional which takes top 6 to get to Loretta’s in each class.
Who was that gangster in second in + 30. ? Haas? He's fast as shit. Thanks. Also, it looks like Reeds rear rebound is off the mark. Rear end almost throwing him over the bars on kicker faces.
Not trying to take anything away from ya boy, but that was 22's 4th moto of the day coming from the couch... Gotta know dude was running on fumes at that point.
Damn Matty u really get around the country. I can imagine just the cost of petroleum distillate is outrageous. Once the Lonely-Fans money starts coming in you can take your private Jet everywhere. Then have your film crew get all the footage and editing while you eat nachos in your air conditioned RV that your chauffeur has waiting for u in the pits.
I think dude who was with him there first motoof plus 30 A was faster rider the way he was catching him coming in to turns much faster just looked like he ran out of steam after 3 laps
With all due respect to the legend that is Chad Reed I gotta disagree, he wasn’t top 10 his last season and it would be harder for him now but that’s just my opinion!
You do realize when he was still racing at the end of his pro career he wasn’t even hardly able to qualify thru the LCQ, right? He wouldn’t even qualify for a pro sx now
@mattburkeen820 if he got in shape he could be in top 10 the only fast guys are top 3 or 4 the rest are bums wankers,blooks wow and I cheered your bum as on at Unadilla ur a bum as well
He literally got beat and had another guy right on him… he’s way past his prime and isn’t some top level pro anymore. Matty B is pro too but I bet you don’t care if he races but let it be an old Chad reed and you people cry like a little Biatch. It’s motocross and there’s nothing wrong with an old pro who can barely beat local pros (and even loses to them also) get to race ever again, right?
Yeah bc god forbid former pros be allowed to race again after their career is over, right? It’s old meaningless classes, stop crying. And as you just saw, he got beat at a local track so let’s not act like he is anywhere near the chad reed we all remember over 2 decades ago. It is legal so why are you bitching?
A retired pro racer like Reed is not sandbagging in a local race while racing in the open pro class. Where do you want him to race? What an idiotic comment!
Reed racing is awesome, to be in the same pits with your moto-scooter hero while he's also teaching his kids is what racing is all about for families. Lots of ex-pros have come to Loretta's and the fans/racers enjoy it.
Sad people are jealous that he’s still doing what he loves years after retiring.
Me too! Dude just wants to race!
It’s all the people like me that have to race him😂😂😂
Reed still has that perfect form! So rad!
100%! Was stoked to see him out there
They should invite Ricky, James, Chad, Vilapodo, and the rest of the old guard to a race tour. Hell, they would get more spectators than AMA supercross!
That would be epic!!

🐝🏁 that would be great see happen 👍
Agree, Chad makes the track look easy. Amazing talent.
Total legend!
Half the people in his classes who called him washed up being keyboard warriors are punching air right now mid moto
Naw those same people will have another excuse like:he's on a factory bike. Something.
😂😂😭😭
He's racing carpenters and accountants. LL "Amateur Nationals"
Hang on a minute there , carpenter motocrosser from Aussie here . I don’t let off for no one 🤣
@@GT-mn3bxwhy is there pro classes at LL if they only want amateurs? I’ll wait

Thank you I’m stoked you’re enjoying it!!
Cheers mate 👍 great to see the legend still performing well. His poor body will be feeling every bump these days but he's built different 🇦🇺.
Oh yea I know he was sore the next day!
He looks fast as hell still
Still got it for sure!
Great video, Brandon and Reedy had a good race going. Doesn't get any more fun.
Thank you, was definitely fun to watch!
Great job Matty B!!!
I did nothing, Chad shredded! Such a legend
@mattburkeen820 Awesome footage though. I raced LST back in 1983, great track!!
Props to who ever , shot and edited that footage….. top-of-the-line🫡🫡
Thank you just did it with my phone!
Thanks for the footage Matty. Roving moto-reporter
Yessir you’re welcome! Luckily this was right up the road from the house!
chad just doing side quests now😂
Dudes a racer!

Another great video!!!
Thank you! Great rider!
You can’t go anywhere at a bigger track and have a slow pro sport class. Shows he still got it. Pretty cool vid matty B
Damn right that’s for sure! Thank you!!

He’s a bad dude that’s for sure!
With the field right now I doubt 15th would be in the cards. Maybe 20th-25th. He is looking sneaky fast though.
SUPERFAN 💪💪💪💪💪💪
Reed been training if your watching his channel.
🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
I haven’t been keeping up I’ve been slacking!!
Braaaap
Yeah mate 🇦🇺
Chad was ripping! 🤙
Always!
Epic footage
Thanks for the help sf!
I agree it should be like boxing, but everyone that races in his class will always remember that one time they got to race Chad Reed. Everyone around them will know it too.
I know the time I got to race with him was one of my best racing moments!!
Reed's looking fast, still🔥
He’s got
No choice!
wow man he still rips
Still got it!
always liked chad, racing is racing
Legend!
The old fella still got it im impressed. Thanks Matty nice upload, Couldnt get a post race interview?? 😂
Thank you! Haha I didn’t wanna bother the guy he’s just trying to enjoy some racing with his family!
@@mattburkeen820 yeah for sure. Cool to see him out there though did you see if Tate raced and/or did well?
Yea Tate raced and seemed to do pretty good!

Place is epic!
How was the turn out in the A and B classes? Looks light
Actually A class was decent I think it was about a 20 rider field! I just missed the starts
@3:26 he's still got it 💯
100%!!
Unlike supercross, MX nationals could easily implement more races like vets/ 40+ or even add a 250 2 stroke race similar to the old days when they had a 500cc open class
That would be rad to see!
🐝🏁 I hung out round Chad Reed at a MotoGP race. REDBULL Racing.
🤘🏻🤙🏻
No way was that Brandon Haas of clubmx? Sux you weren't out there, may the bikes get fixed soon.
Oh yea sure was! I know wish I could have been out there 😭
The dude rips, bet he's sneaking some practice time in when the boys are sleeping.
Sound effects...yes please 🎉 1:16
😂🤘🏻
What year was this ? Lake Sugar Tree didn't have a 2024 Qualifier.
They literally just had one yesterday
@mattburkeen820 My bad I was looking under results.
All good! Yea I was wanting to see those too and I don’t think they are up yet
Who was the rider that beat reed in Open pro?
Avery long
Thank you...I was wondering who that was
Never heard of him but he’s a stud for besting reed like that
Reed could make 450 SX Mains today if he wanted to.
eeeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh last year pro was a top 20 guy. A lot has changed in four years.
That would be tough!
Heard he was at tomahawk mx today!
Epic!!
For the dummies that don’t know the rules of Loretta’s, anyone who has a pro license cannot race. I think there’s a two year clause or something like that. So yes Reed or any ex pro can race if they qualify at the area and regional qualifiers.

Yea Brandon haas he shreds!
@@mattburkeen820club mx owner?
@@Upthebroncos310 yes sir
I believe In 2022 at The Ranch Haas took 5th in Junior (25+) and Championed in Vet 30+. Pretty cool a guy as busy as he is still shreds.
Shock was a bit snappy on the rebound
Whats he wearing on his back?
I thought it was just an under chest protector but I’m not exactly sure!
Awesome racing #263 Avery Long of New London, MN beat him 2nd moto of 450 A/Pro
Yea Avery shreds!!
Not trying to take anything away from ya boy, but that was 22's 4th moto of the day coming from the couch... Gotta know dude was running on fumes at that point.
Oh yea you’re not wrong!
Dont forget a bad fuel failure Chad was gonna race supercross...last year....he been manager his kids racing which is fun
Would’ve been cool!
who said bad fuel , ktm fuel pump failure pretty sure you were saying , ktmthings
Avery Long taking Chad to the Mathew’s bridge in moto 2 let’s goooo!!
Kid shreds!
Damn Matty u really get around the country. I can imagine just the cost of petroleum distillate is outrageous. Once the Lonely-Fans money starts coming in you can take your private Jet everywhere. Then have your film crew get all the footage and editing while you eat nachos in your air conditioned RV that your chauffeur has waiting for u in the pits.
Hahahah this was actually only 15 minutes from my house! Very convenient
It’s cheeseburgers 🍔
@@superfan311 I knew he had some sick habits 😆
How does he have time for 3 classes and support all his kids?
Dudes an animal!
So if i wanted to win 30 vet pro at lorretta no ricky i have to beat Chad...i would have love to race robbie reynard he was such a talent...
30 is actually a sportsman class I was wrong on the classes he rode
That in third in the last moto was right there on a 250
Oh yea!
@@mattburkeen820 ayeee
You think you could take him?
Definitely not now, prob not ever 😂
I think you could take him 🤘🏻
These are my 2 classes 25 plus an 30 they useally mix them in one gate so i dont get motos...
I messed up Chad actually rode 25 & 40 lol
No holeshot device an he pulls a holeshot datta boy
He had one
24 hrs
?
Letting 22 in this race is not even fair.
😂🤷♂️ way she goes, gotta race who shows up!!
Because???
I think dude who was with him there first motoof plus 30 A was faster rider the way he was catching him coming in to turns much faster just looked like he ran out of steam after 3 laps
Eh idk I think Chad had another gear!
For the gentleman. Pause 2:30
😂
Bro who is the dude keeping up with him? Holy shit sign that dude up for the pro nationals rn.
Brandon haas in the 25 plus and Avery long beat him in a pro sport Moto
Check out @ClubMX
I’m sure Chad didn’t train or anything.
Didn’t have to lol
I thought this was gary baileys track at one time the owners
It was!
🍬 👶 👶 😂😂
😂🤘🏻
If Reed was racing supercross he would be top ten
With all due respect to the legend that is Chad Reed I gotta disagree, he wasn’t top 10 his last season and it would be harder for him now but that’s just my opinion!
@@mattburkeen820450 class is insanely stacked I agree 100 percent
450 class super stacked some people really don't understand the level right now it's insane...
You do realize when he was still racing at the end of his pro career he wasn’t even hardly able to qualify thru the LCQ, right? He wouldn’t even qualify for a pro sx now
@mattburkeen820 if he got in shape he could be in top 10 the only fast guys are top 3 or 4 the rest are bums wankers,blooks wow and I cheered your bum as on at Unadilla ur a bum as well
Mike brown done HELL NO

Nothing like sandbagging carpenters and accountants.

Fastest cry baby in the biz haha haters gon hate ✊😂
Are you one of the haters? 😂
You just called yourself out 😂
This is the comment I came to see. F22
Wow pro sand bagging amateurs its about like Michael Jordan playing high school ball again
Yeah bc god forbid former pros be allowed to race again after their career is over, right? It’s old meaningless classes, stop crying.

@davidbiagi2932 no class at Loretta's is meaningless and it call amateur national dumb ass Amateur
@@christopherrhea8578says the dumbass comparing a 30+ class to high schoolers
A retired pro racer like Reed is not sandbagging in a local race while racing in the open pro class. Where do you want him to race? What an idiotic comment!
another sandbagging pro in the 40 plus class hope he feels good about himself Loretta Lynn’s is an amatuer event Chad Reed is not.
your joking right?
@@DisasterTheoryX doubt it... people are morons
Hope you know ever Rc went to Loretta’s after he stopped racing pro
A bunch of pros do this whether it’s to spend time with there kids or just to race again and not get hurt in supercross
Mike Brown in the 40+
Cool vid.... but guys like reedy racing lls is..... sigh.....
I’m sure he will only go if his kids qualify! I know where you’re coming from but some people just love to race!

I got to race him a couple years ago and it was one of my more epic racing moments and memories!!
