Default Whats up with P. Val ?

My the tangled web he can weave. Pat is out with an injury and now his Agent Jim Pegram has taken the book of David Cohen. How many times can P.Val get away with this act?

I think I read last week that he has allowed his provisional (or conditional? I can't remember what they called it) license to expire...meaning i guess, that it isn't a given that he is coming back??

That's too bad. Sorry to hear that he is losing the battle with his demons.

No liscence = no testing

I dont feel bad for him at all , if he were on the up and up and trying to do the right thing he would be back in there renewing his liscence.

I don't feel bad that he can't ride...just that I know what it's like to try to kick a bad habit...

I have no doubt that he will be back at some point...ride in a few big races and then disappear again with an 'injury'...I feel bad for him.
