DUNGEY WINS AGAIN

Rockstar Makita Suzuki's Ryan Dungey has made history by becoming the 2010 AMA Pro Motocross Champion - and securing his second title of the year this weekend at Southwick MX in Massachusetts.

The 20-year-old rookie has gained enough points in the series with his complete domination of the 450 motocross class to take home the trophy with two races still left on the schedule. He claimed the 2010 AMA Supercross title in May, making him the youngest rookie racer ever to do so, and has now added the Pro Motocross championship to his list of accomplishments, making him the only rookie ever to clinch both titles.

Dungey has been unstoppable on his Suzuki fuel-injected RM-Z450 and has taken home the win in the past nine races in a row and won 16 out of 20 motos

"What Ryan has done, no one has ever done before including McGrath, Stewart and Carmichael," Said Team Manager Roger DeCoster. "No one has ever won both the Supercross and a National Championship back to back as a rookie. It's pretty impressive. Sometimes, because Ryan is such a subdued nice guy, you don't really realise what a big thing that he has done. I expect more and more perfection, but you look back and see that he is doing things that no one has ever done before - it's pretty impressive."

Dungey went into Southwick focused on racing his best race, like always. He lined up at the gate determined to give his best performance on the sandy, technical track in Massachusetts, and at the start of moto 1, Dungey started near the front of the pack. He moved into second place and stayed there most of the race. During the last lap, he was battling for the lead when the opportunity to move up presented itself and he took the lead with less than a lap to go.

With the championship in view, Dungey lined up for moto 2 focused on finishing strong again. He moved into the lead early in the race and by the time the chequered flag flew, he was more than 24 seconds ahead of second place and clinched the title by ending the day 151 points ahead of second place with only two races left on the schedule.

"This feels great," Dungey said after the race. "It's a lot of hard work and a lot of long weeks in the off season to prepare for this, but its all the better when you pull it off and win the championship. It's not all me, everyone on the Rockstar Makita Suzuki team put 110 per cent into everything they do and that's all I could ever ask. We work well together and enjoy working together at the same time. It makes it fun."

"The Suzuki family is ecstatic to add this championship to our trophy case," Rod Lopusnak, Suzuki's National Sales Manager for the Motorcycle Division, said. "Looking back at the last year it is hard to find one word other than 'Champion' to express what Ryan, the RM-Z450 and Team Rockstar Makita Suzuki have accomplished in their rookie season!"

Yoshimura R&D of America Vice President Don Sakakura said "Congratulations to Ryan Dungey for his awesome, record-breaking rookie season! Ryan's courage, superior skills, and diligent conditioning were instrumental in his dominating motocross season and accomplishments which Ryan will surely cherish for a lifetime. His Suzuki RM-Z450 performed flawlessly all season long, and we must offer sincere appreciation to the Suzuki engineering team abroad, as well Roger DeCoster and his team of race technicians.

"It's been a perfect season; probably a season we will remember for the rest of our lives," DeCoster said. "It's never happened before - a rookie has never won back-to-back championships. Ryan has done it."

Dungey has made history winning a total of four national titles in the past two years. He won two titles in 2009, the AMA Supercross Western Regional Lites and the 250 Motocross championships, both on the RM-Z250, as well as being the hero of Team USA at the Motocross of Nations in Italy. Now with the 2010 Supercross and the Motocross title in his possession, Dungey was named the captain of Team USA and hopes to keep the Motocross of Nations championship in the U.S.

The next AMA Pro Motocross race takes place at Steel City in Delmont, PA, on September 4th. And Dungey, despite having clinched the title, will be focused on battling for the lead there.

COOKSLEY NAMED TO LEAD NEW ZEALAND

Tony Cooksley

Words & Pic by Andy McGechan

With so many years of international experience under his wheels, Auckland veteran Tony Cooksley was the obvious choice to manage the three-rider Team New Zealand at this year’s Motocross of Nations in the United States.

The 54-year-old Yamaha stalwart was named to guide the trio of Kiwi racers – Motueka’s Josh Coppins, Tauranga’s Ben Townley and Hawera’s Brad Groombridge – at this year’s edition of the fabled Motocross of Nations (MXoN), set for Colorado on September 25-26.

Not only is Cooksley a former world champion – having won the world veterans’ motocross crown on a Yamaha YZ250 in 2007 – but he also has vast experience actually racing in the big annual MXoN event.

Cooksley was a part of the 1984 team drafted together at the last minute by the Kiwi contingent of riders who were already in Europe at that time, racing at the International Six Days Enduro in Holland.

The MXoN was raced that year in Finland and Cooksley agreed to be a part of New Zealand’s debut at the event. The American quartet of David Bailey, Rick Johnson, Johnny O'Mara and Jeff Ward won that weekend, one of the first of many American successes that were to follow in later years, but at least New Zealand was on the scoreboard.

Cooksley also raced for Team New Zealand (in the United States) in 1987, teamed with Taranaki brothers Darryll and Shayne King, and again in 1991 (in the Netherlands), teamed with Troy McAsey and Daryl Atkins.

New Zealand has never won the event but has placed on the podium on three memorable occasions – in 1998, 2001 and 2006 -- and Cooksley rates New Zealand’s chances of being there again this time around.

“I believe it will be hard to beat the Americans, especially on their own turf, and France, Belgium and Australia will be fancied too, but I feel we have a good chance of getting inside the top six and maybe even on the podium,” said Cooksley.

“The track is a long way above sea level, so bike settings might be an issue, but Ben’s raced there before and his knowledge will be a help. I don’t know how the altitude might affect the riders though.

“It’s a huge honour for me to be chosen to manage the team. I’m really looking forward to it.”

KAWASAKI WINS INDY MILE

SMITH GIVES KAWASAKI THEIR FIRST AMA PRO FLAT TRACK WIN

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (August 28, 2010) - History was made on the fabled Indiana State Fairgrounds mile oval as Kawasaki / Monster Energy / Werner-Springsteen Racing's #42 Bryan Smith captured the first AMA Pro K&N Filters Grand National Championship presented by Motorcycle-Superstore.com Twins Main event in a hard fought, twenty five lap battle.


Lancaster Harley-Davidson / Dallas Fort Worth Honda's Chris Carr grabbed the early lead from series points leader #3 Joe Kopp on his Latus Harley-Davidson / ENI USA R&M backed Ducati, then repeated the feat as the race was red flagged on lap three, when Stevie Bonsey fell in turn three.

Carr picked up where he left off, but now Smith and Zanotti Racing's #5 Jake Johnson were right behind. On lap six Smith took control, but White's Harley-Davidson / SNIP's Matt Weidman was up high on the cushion and flying to the front. Unfortunately for Weidman, when the high line went away, he backed up as fast as he had come forward.

As the race reached the mid-point it became a two rider race. Smith and Carr went back and forth several times, but as the laps wound down Smith took control. The race would end with Carr just over a tenth of a second out. "I've been dreaming about this all year," said Smith. "And it wasn't a nightmare either. I was sure, as soon as we got to these tracks with long straight-aways, the Kawasaki's power was let us finally win one."
"I just couldn't draft him (Smith)," said Carr. "I could get close, but he just had too much power."

Harley-Davidson Motor Company's Kenny Coolbeth brought his #2 Harley-Davidson home third over two seconds off the lead.
Johnson took control of fourth and rode home a lonely three seconds off the pace. King's Kustoms / KK Motorcycle Supply's Sammy Halbert finished an uneventful fifth as Joe Kopp made a late race pass of Rookie of the Year front runner, Moroney's 1-800fasthog.com's #99B PJ Jacobsen.

Defending Series Champion # 1 Jared Mees work his way up to fourth before sliding back to an eighth place finish. It was another eight seconds back to Matt Weidman.
The K&N Filter's dash for Cash saw Chris Carr dominate as points leader Joe Kopp suffered a blow to his points total when he couldn't get his Ducati to fire and he received no points. Sammy Halbert and Bryan Smith rounded out the podium as all three received "Special Edition, Nicky Hayden watches."
When JD Beach announced he was moving up to the Expert ranks for the Labor Day races in Springfield he said he wanted to win the Peoria, IL TT and the Indianapolis, IN Mile before taking on the challenge.

Impressively Beach accomplished just that as he led the last eleven laps of the Motorcycle-Superstore.com Pro Singles Grand National Championship main on his #95C Red Bull / Top 1 Oil backed Honda. Price Truck Line / Kennedy Wheels' #22L Michael Toon and Van's Yamaha / Woody Kyle Racing's #24P Jeffery Carver finished a very close second and third.

Carver's points lead continues to grow in the Motorcycle-Superstore.com Pro Singles Grand National Championship. Carver now leads defending Champion Brad Baker by 31 points with James Rispoli another thirty six points back.
The K&N Filters Grand National Championship presented by Motorcycle-Superstore.com points standing are still being le by Joe Kopp, but Sammy Halbert and Jake Johnson are closing in, just twelve and fourteen points back respectively.

How Government Ministers respond to OIA requests

A good post by No Right Turn overnight, indicating that government Ministers are regularly ignoring the law when responding to requests made under the Official Information Act.

Of more than 2000 requests to Ministers under the Official Information Act between 1 July 2009 and 30 June 2010, just one Minister, Chris Finlayson, responded to all requests within the statutory 20 day period. All other Ministers have failed to uphold the law.

Overall, only 71 percent of requests were answered on time, while three Ministers - Jonathan Coleman, Tim Groser, and Judith Collins - made timely responses in only 50 percent of cases. One Minister, Gerry Brownlee, responded to less than 40 percent of requests within the statutory period.

Another Minister, Paula Bennett, refused to cooperate at all, offering various excuses before ultimately claiming that compiling the data would not be in the public interest. This refusal is now the subject of a complaint to the Ombudsman.

OIA responses must be provided "as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any case not later than 20 working days after the day on which the request is received". Just about everyone flouts that law. Ministers appear to be using the 20-day period as a deadline and flouting that, which is worse.

The survey will be repeated next year.

DUCATI SUPERBIKE BOMBSHELL

It's official! Both Ducati and the organisers of the World Superbike Championship confirmed last Friday that the Italian manufacturer has decided not to enter a works team in the 2011 series.
The Borgo Panigale manufacturer has built a large part of its history and reputation on the back of its wins in the world championship for production-based bikes, in which it has taken part since the very start and in which it has obtained 16 Manufacturers’ and 13 Riders’ titles with its strictly twin-cylinder production models.
As recently as last year Ducati was fighting for the championship title right down to the final round of the season at Portimao, proving the outright competitiveness of its flagship model, the 1198, and demonstrating the extremely well-balanced nature of the current technical regulations.
“We are disappointed and also a bit surprised at Ducati’s decision,” declared Paolo Flammini, CEO of Infront Motor Sports, “especially since we have been asked numerous times for a change in the regulations to bring about a better balancing of twin-cylinder 1200cc machines towards the four-cylinder 1000cc bikes, but it must be mentioned that last year, without the presence of a phenomenal Ben Spies, the Ducati 1198 would have dominated the championship with Haga and Fabrizio, and it is therefore difficult for us today to comprehend this decision, which of course we must respect.
"Moreover the FIM Superbike World Championship can today boast the participation of six manufacturers in addition to Ducati, with Aprilia, BMW, Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki and Yamaha and is therefore obliged to maintain a total balance in the regulations, without privileging one or other manufacturer in particular."
Despite its 'factory team' decision Ducati has, apparently, confirmed that it will continue technical support for private teams that will be competing with its models in the 2011 championship and that the development of its new generation of hypersport bikes, in both homologated and Superbike race versions, will continue.

Zanjoe Binastos Nga Ba Si Cristine Reyes?

This was on the Buzz this afternoon (August 29). According to the news, 'binastos ni Zanjoe Marudo si Cristine Reyes!'. It was actually a scene in Kristine (August 20 episode) where Zanjoe was suppose to touch the upper asset of Cristine Reyes (very lucky guy). It should've been ok since it's part of the script. Not only after Zanjoe made a tweet that Cristine didn't like.

Someone asked Zanjoe how was it like to touch Cristine's upper asset to which Zanjoe replied 'Konti lang, hahahaha!' without knowing that the public can actually read it including Cristine Reyes.

Oh well, just watch the video below. It is somewhere at the 00:51 mark.

BMW FROM TIP TO TOE

Here's the official press release on the big BMW ride:

In celebration of the 30th anniversary of BMW GS motorcycle, and to raise money for the New Zealand Westpac Helicopter Trust, riders from the BMW Owners Register of New Zealand and visiting BMW aficionados from overseas will be riding the entire length of New Zealand in November.

Riders will be taking in as many opportunities as possible to get "off the beaten track" on their BMW GS series bikes, known for their of dual purpose, off-road/on-road capabilities.

"This is just a great example of how many of our members seek to combine their motorcycling adventures with practical ways to benefit our community," said Rob Hargreaves, National President of the BMW Owners Register of New Zealand.

This epic off-road adventure starts at Cape Reinga at the top of the North Island on Sunday 14 November and ends in Invercargill at the bottom of the South Island where riders will join the festivities at the Burt Munroe Challenge from 24 - 28 November. The Burt Munroe Challenge is an event that honours Burt, his ingenuity, determination, and love of speed and motorcycles.

Ride organiser and member of the BMWOR Canterbury branch Justin Ryan said, "A few of us were kicking around ideas for this ride earlier this year and thought if we're going to spend two weeks riding the length of the country then we should use that opportunity to raise money for charity. We decided it would be the Westpac Helicopter Trust. The trust provides a service that, unfortunately, motorcyclists have drawn on over the years".

The Auckland based Westpac Rescue Helicopter is the only rescue helicopter service in New Zealand that operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Over the past 40 years of operation, the service has performed more than 12,000 rescues and is internationally recognised for its pioneering work in saving lives. The funds raised from this event will be used for the ongoing operational costs of the Westpac Rescue Helicopter. The running costs for most helicopter rescues are between $3,000 and $7,000 per hour.

So far, over 75 GS riders have registered their interest, with a core group of 10 undertaking the whole ride and others joining and leaving at different points.

Real Life Social Networks

Paul Adams, a senior user experience researcher at Google created an extremely rich and insightful presentation looking at the challenges that real-life social networks bring to web design.

When it comes to reflecting our real life social networks into what could be considered rudimentary online networks, there is a real design challenge in terms representing how your friends, colleagues and associates inter-relate to each other.
****

Social technologies such as Facebook and Twitter have a homogenised view of friendship; they group everyone together. This typically doesn’t reflect how real friendships are nurtured and naturally creates communication challenges.

For example, not everyone will want to know on a daily basis about your fondness of cats, or wants to know about your regular eating habits.

So next time before you tag your photo’s on Facebook, Flickr or send that Tweet consider who will actually see it and do they need to?

Education Ministry to educate parents on National Standards

The Ministry of Education has sent brochures to boards of primary schools for them to distribute to parents to educate them on how children can meet the various National Standards. Apparently these weren’t sent to schools, they were sent to board chairs instead – perhaps to ensure that principals unsupportive of National Standards - which appears to be most of them - didn’t throw them in the bin.

I’ve read the National Standards and the brochures. While the brochures are good and explain what children need to do to improve their learning, they fall a little short in reflecting the Standards. However they do reflect aspects of the National Curriculum. For example, in discussing reading standards at Years 4 and 5, the brochures (see Year 4 [PDF] and Year 5 [PDF] state
that to meet these Standards, children will know what they want to read, they will “read smoothly, like taking”, recognise and understand information in different kinds of books, and understand different levels of meaning.

But the actual Standards for Years 4 and 5 demands that students will read, respond to and think critically about texts. It states they will locate, integrate and evaluate information on ideas as they work at Level 2 and towards Level 3 of the New Zealand Curriculum respectively. That’s just to meet the standard.

It is unclear why the Ministry wants to communicate to parents on National Standards without reference to documents like this [PDF] that attempts to explain what the Standards actually are. It is also unclear why the Ministry does not appear interested to advise parents what children need to do to exceed these standards. It is also unclear what the Ministry is expecting schools to do, because the leaflets say one thing, the Standards another, the Minister, something else altogether.As this indicates, Anne Tolley is deluded.

Meanwhile schools are grading kids as either “meeting” “working towards” or “exceeding” National Standards when they are not even required to grade kids in this way for the purposes of reporting to parents.

TOUGH WEEKEND FOR KIWI RIDERS IN FRANCE

By Andy McGechan

It was a mixed weekend for the Kiwi riders contesting this year’s FIM World Junior Motocross Championships in France.

Mangakino’s Kayne Lamont (Suzuki) DNFed his first 125cc moto but scrambled back to record an 11th placing in the second moto, giving him 17th overall for the event.

Rangiora’s Isaiah McGoldrick (KTM) fared less well, finishing out of the points both times, while his younger brother, Micah (KTM), managed to finish 32nd overall in the 85cc class.

“France was very hot and there was over a 100 riders in my class,” said Micah McGoldrick.

“I was sitting in the top five in moto 1 and 2, and feeling strong and good on the bike but making too many mistakes, which cost me a good finish. That’s racing for you: Thinking you’re going to do well and it all goes bad and you’re just gutted it did. But I’m going to move on and come back stronger and faster.”

Micah’s big brother, Isaiah, also enjoyed the experience.

“My goal at this event was to Qualify into the top 40 and I  qualified 23rd, so I was happy with that,” said Isaiah McGoldrick.

“On race day, things went backwards though. In moto one, I had a very hard crash around the high-speed sweeping first corner. In this crash my front tyre went flat. I went into the pits and put on a new front wheel, then went back onto the track.

“But I got black flagged for re entering the track after being back in the pits. So that was a DNF.

“In the halfway point of moto two I was sitting 26th. I had another massive crash, going over the bars on a table top. I got back up but pulled out of the race because I was really shaken up from the crashes. It was a super painful weekend.”

So, instead of the Kiwi trio, the weekend instead belonged to American rider Jake Pinhancos (65cc), Henry Jacobi, from Germany (85cc), and French sensation Jordi Tixier (125cc).

USA got on the top step for the nations classification. France was second and 2009 winner Australia had to settle for third position this year.

FIM MOTOCROSS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP - BRAZIL

22 August 2010, Campo Grande (Brazil)

The mechanical problem experienced by Clement Desalle’s Suzuki delivered the MX1 title into the hands of champion Antonio Cairoli who with the Pirelli Scorpion MX confirmed a successful defence of his crown. It was a triumphant day for KTM at the Grand Prix of Brazil but it was also a momentous occasion for Pirelli, having equipped the first nine of ten riders in the top ten of the classification. With second position overall in MX2, standings leader Marvin Musquin now has one hand on the championship and could wrap up the 2010 series at Lierop, Holland in two weeks.

MX1
Antonio Cairoli had planned to celebrate his 2010 world championship at Lierop in two weeks and the penultimate round of the series, instead his victory at the new circuit in Campo Grande combined with the mechanical failure experienced by Desalle meant an early celebration for the KTM rider and team using the 350SX-F booted with Scorpion MidSoft 32 front and rear. The timing of the success was not completely expected but there is no doubt that Cairoli thoroughly deserves his spoils and in the alliance with Pirelli has owned seven of the thirteen rounds this season so far. The same tyre combination in Campo Grande was used by the next eight riders. Second place was earned by David Philippaerts followed by Max Nagl, Steve Ramon, Rui Goncalves, Davide Guarneri, Joshua Coppins, Tanel Leok and Clement Desalle. One of the revelations of the 2010 campaign, Evgeny Bobryschev, did not take part after a crash in practice caused several cracked ribs.

MX2
The Brazilian stage saw MX2 championship leader Marvin Musquin lose a set of duels with Ken Roczen but the Frenchman only has to wait two weeks for the Grand Prix of Benelux in the sand of Lierop to place his hands on the title for the second year in succession. The works KTM rider, using Scorpion MidSoft 32 front and rear, finished runner-up to the German Suzuki representative at both times of asking. The absent Jeffrey Herlings was joined on the sidelines by Red Bull KTM team-mate Shaun Simpson who also dislocated his shoulder (left) on the first lap of the opening moto. Yamaha’s Gautier Paulin was out of luck after his involvement with the Simpson incident led to a broken water pump and a DNF. In the second moto he took fourth place but could have been one position higher if it had not been for a crash on a slippery part of the terrain in the waves section.
