Bummer, but the writing's been on the wall for a while. I just hope EBR can run a second rider. It doesn't have to be Eslick - there are a lot of great riders out there, but if Geoff is the only rider, it puts a lot of pressure on him.
But I have confidence that Geoff can beat just about anyone out there.
I assume Herrin, Young and Cardenas will all be racing Superbike, but we haven't hard much yet specific about contracts. I haven't heard anything about Pegram's bike either. Tommy Hayden? Disalvo?
With three months until Daytona, everything's very much up in the air - including a TV deal.
+1 on Geoff. Cory West rode the 2nd EBR bike during the CCS races at Homestead a couple of weekends ago; I'd guess he's a strong possibility for taking over the 2nd bike.
