    Tomac is normal. It's the other people who are constantly clammering for attention are the odd balls IMHO.

      Indeed he is not at all consumed in any of the junk most people get involved with ! Lots of meaningless junk for most people and a lot of insecurity !

      Nailed it. Tomac is also a bowhunter. Anyone who has also done that knows that Tomac would definitely rather be doing that rather than clamoring for attention outside of his training. And he also has 2 young kids...

    Tomac is the most loved rider of this generation. His persona is a big part of that. Literally no one hates on tomac, the dude is badass and he comes across as a normal dude who is unreal on a dirt bike

    “He might regret not doing more media”
    I think Eli is one of the few guys who truly doesn’t give a rats ass about how popular or famous he is. He would still be racing if only 10 people showed up and no money was on the line.

  • @donmiller2246

    Eli has been the guy not to fuk with on the track he has showed that time after time he is a simple guy that just comes to work does his work then goes home I feel if he wanted you to know more about him he will let ya know he keeps it short and sweet

    • @Zzzzzz-ns7lg
      @Zzzzzz-ns7lg Год назад +6

      Eli is a professional athlete and a very well known name in this sport (obviously) but he’s almost like that working class guy that goes to work to provid for his family and that’s all he cares about. He’s a freak of nature on a bike but at the end of the days he’s “just a guy”

  • @JoeTheBlacksmith13
    @JoeTheBlacksmith13 Год назад +16

    Eli is simply introverted. Western society is unusual with the way it acts like that’s a bad thing. More power to him. Might inspire some introverts to be more comfortable with who they are. Our society needs them… desperately.

      @patrickgiles2700 Год назад

      Spot on. And as amazing as Jett has been, I really think Eli is going to beat him when he returns. Not by raw speed, but a combination of speed and the mental game. Eli gets in guys heads. Webb is a master at the mind game and he’s said he can’t crack Eli. And Eli will push Jett in ways Sexton has not pushed him, forcing mistakes.

  • @brianmartindale2221
    @brianmartindale2221 Год назад +10

    Eli's dad was a champion, considered maybe the best BMX and MTB rider of his times, and a super nice man. Eli grew up around a true cycling superstar and I can understand Eli knowing about what's involved. SW CO is also a pretty nice place for an athletic retreat

    Tomac is one bad ass dude on a dirt bike and he doesn’t need to say a damn thing. When he leaves, it will leave a massive hole in our sport. It’s a different vibe when Eli is lining up then jett. Even though I think jett is possibly better but it’s not the same beast. Don’t really know how to say it

  • @tacoenvy
    @tacoenvy Год назад +3

    Eli has never craved any media attention and he will never regret doing more of it, it just isn't him and I love that about him. To say he might regret not doing more media is dumb as hell.

  • @CaddyJim
    @CaddyJim Год назад +4

    A great example would probably be *#AP* look back he was straight-laced when he was on *Star Yamahas 250 team* he was doing what everybody else was doing or thought he should do now he's the biggest personality around. (Now if you could just get the results he was getting on the 250 would get that personality more of the spotlight)

    Eli Tomac is j.Cole or Kendrick Lamar of motocross. Very little publicity, no interviews rarely, just show up, kill the game, and let his work speak for himself. Like the ole saying, “what’s understood doesn’t need to be explained”.

    Tomac just knows how to avoid the noise and distraction. And I think he’s going to beat Jett next year. Jett is fast, no doubt, but Eli will push him into mistakes.

    Some other Colorado boy's to watch are the Blecha's out of Fruita Colorado, some podiums at the Ranch this year, without much backing, I expect to see some sponsorship next year. Tomac is all business, stays out of conflict, except Barcia 2 or 3 years ago, that was fun. I've met Eli a few time, all the way around good guy, that means business, was nice to see him loosen up this year🤙

    Some of my friends don't like Tomac because they think he is an ahole, but have not basis for their thinking other than that they don't see him interacting more. If I was in that situation that Tomac is in, I'd do the same shit, and not because I hate people, but because these guys are so busy as it is. A lot of times there is just too much distraction. And as for the interviews of the racers, I am getting sick of hearing the same questions over and over and would hate being these guys. You can see it sometimes especially post race conference, which I can not watch anymore for that reason.

    Tomac is transcending the sport by being a top guy/champion at an age the sport doesn’t really see. Similar to Tom Brady winning Super Bowls in his 40’s to me that is what Eli is doing in his 30’s in a much harder sport. Just my opinion…

So love what you do it is so much less mundain than most of what world does for a living. Although I think if they do not bring back 2 strokes nobody will be able to buy an fff'ing dirtbike that is not a factory rider at 15k for a new 450. Anyway keep up the great content. I love the channel. Trey Canard content was fabulous. These guys open themselves up on your podcast unlike anyone else's in the industry. Your channel is overdue for a Tsunami of subscriptions.
