Give Jurgen VDGB a factory bike!!!!!!!

steve nielsen · 9 Jul 2000, 18:43 (Ref:22292)

Fantastic how Jurgen vd Goorbergh rides this season, he's got more points than Biaggi , in Assen and Donnington he finished in front of a lot of 4 cilinder bikes, so now's the time for Honda, Yamaha or Suzuki to act, give Jurgen a factory bike, he deserves it!!.

I can't agree with you more!
Jurgen had a fantastic race today,if he doesn't get that four cilinder now he never will!!!

Go Jurgen!!!!!!

He deserves a better bike. When the bike suits the track he always seems to do well. I hate to say this as I like both riders, but Jurgen should replace Gibernau at Honda.

being dutch myself i have to agree of course but 5th on Donington. Couldn't believe my eyes.
It all has to happen next year though. He is 30 now so..

nice to be welcomed like this! I wanted to register with my own name(more or less) but the forum didn't accept the email
adress(hotmail). So now i registered with an email adress i seldomly use. No problem

This forum has a nice lay-out, well organized! I think you'll see more of me because i have a problem with keeping my mouth shut so..

I don't know what it is but every dutch racer i know being it the old dinosaurs Will Hartog, Boet van Dulmen and (the late) Jack Middelburg or the young guys Jurgen VDGB and Wilco Zeelenburg, they all ride well in the rain. They all like(d) it. Even F1 man Jos Verstappen likes it.

I don't. That's why i'm probably not a racer.

ohhh.theres a name from the past wilco Zeelenberg..i beli is the supersports calss now right ????

anyway i agree jurgen should get a good bike..and i agree with elephino he should get Gibernau's bike

Rossifumi · 13 Jul 2000, 19:06 (Ref:23036)

Jurgen on a Repsol Honda that will be the day!
I think that won't happen Repsol only wants Spanish riders on there bikes and Jurgen ain't Spanish!

Dododo i haven't got a problem with guys that can't keep there mouth shut!

So chat away!

Marcus Wilco ain't history yet!He's still up and flying in Supersports although the bike ain't that good as last year.
He also gives racing lessons here in Holland.I'm thinking of doing some of those!(i hope it doesn't rain!

Okay, so it's time for a new team: Shell-Honda, or maybe a dutch company can sponsor another team, I think Jurgen would be best off with a Suzuki I think and Aoki is'nt doing that great, so maybe there's a chance at Suzuki.

elephino · 15 Jul 2000, 11:55 (Ref:23313)

Maybe Yamaha instead of Abe or Biaggi? (yes I know they are riding for two different teams)

Rossifumi · 15 Jul 2000, 22:39 (Ref:23381)

He has chances enough,but will any team take him he's already 30 years old?

Or is 30 not old for a bike racer?
Can you get in a top team with that age?
