Nicky Hayden MTV star?

[bigoltool]

I came across this article on the MCNews.com (Australian)website. It sounds like they are doing a pilot of a MotoGP show for MTV starring Nicky Hayden! Now I hate MTV with a passion, but this could be just what America needed to get top level Motorcycle road racing into the mainstream. We'll see!

I don't watch MTV anymore

but I definately think MotoGP racing coverage in the US needs to improve

Good move by the Australian guy and Hayden, they could make a ton of money.

yeah I thought the "M" stood for MUSIC. I don't have it and don't care. I don't even know of any KIDS that watch MTV!

The guys that created/founded MTV recently setup

and it was good but has a few ads now. It's ALL music

Topic? Oh yeah. MotoGP is cool

Interesting. MTV has been guilty of false advertising for years... almost all of what they show is crap - it would be interesting to see what they would do with a MotoGP show...

BUT you have to admit look at Moto GP 3-5 years ago, at least now in the states alot of people know what it is, a few years ago, you said Moto GP and people looked at you like what the he11 are you talking about
