i do fully understand that, i used to ride myself, but never made any money. and back in the day for every 20 of me probably only 5 made a living out of it.and when i mean a living they would still need a job in the winter. those in Doyles position probably 200 + full time . my point was he's near end of his career, and he might last longer with not as many meetings. but still make enough money, we all know your only a split second from serious injury. i suppose its all about the odds. and let me tell you you have to love it more when you dont make any money, and still do it.
