"I spent over a $1,000,000" - Chad Reed & Ricky Carmichael explain the private jet era - Gypsy Tales 

Ricky Carmichael and Rob Dyrdek look like they could be brothers 🤣

I could listen to these 2 legends for hours and hours

Love to hear em talk about money, athletes don't usually do that.

I could listen to those guys all day! So many great strories! Great work💯

I flew Ricky a couple times at CitationShares. Great guy.

It’s nice to hear these guys talk about normal shit, and old times! 👍🏻

I’m glad Chad and Ricky and sit beside each-other today

Love that fact RC mentioned the luck of being born in a certain era. Very true but equally you have to have this amazing drive and passion to succeed. Great little pod cast keep up the good work!

Such a rad interview! Keep them coming Jase!

Latrobe Airport in Pennsylvania is in my back yard... these two athletes are rock stars !!!! You only get to the top by working your ass off. Gene

I rarely comment on anything but gypsy tales... you sir are a legend for creating this podcast

Interviews/podcasts are totally on-point, this one was the stuff of dreams!! Also loved the recent Eddie Masters interview. More power to you man!

These lads are the best but wish Bubba was here as well.

Priceless... Nuff said..

Really appreciate them talking about the financial aspect of it. So much of our sport is kept secret especially the financial side of it that I am glad they spoke about it

Could listen to these to Legends talk all day. What an era of three champs

Maybe they should have shared a jet and saved half a million dollars 💵 💵 💵 😂

"You guys did this for like ten years" Reed "I'm still doing it" Carmichael "you're an idiot ! " lmao !

Its so cool listening to these guys , Mortal enemies on the track but chilled out now telling the stories we all want to here

Yep. The times were better and guys were tougher than now. I concur 😊

Latrobe is my favorite airport!

Jeremy McGrath helped pave the way for these guys

This was a great interview !!

Be cool about Latrobe airport (Arnold Palmer Airport)! That’s a great little GA airport.

2 GOATS right here kids. If you dont know. Go back and look at the dominance these two guys ruled with in their time

Anyone that hasn't spend a ton of time in airports for work doesn't understand how grueling it is. I've never flow on a private jet, but I get it. With the schedule they had to keep, it was buying time and sanity. Private jet or quit early was probably more like it.

two of the best blessed to hear them chat

I love that they're ok with discussing the numbers openly. I hate when rich people act like they can't disclose such information!

Two legends 100%

More talks like this please. Love the numbers.

I sold Ricky his first big boat. He is A very humble and frugal guy . I think he just bought the boat so his friends could all have fun .

Good stuff. Love those stories.

Latrobe pa hell yeah RC, that’s not far from me!!

Thanks for the Latrobe shoutout Ricky.

Shoutout to Latrobe Airport 💯

FMX really boosted sales during the era they are talking about and racers were the beneficiaries. Which Factory Suzuki racer has sold more Suzuki product? Carmichael, Reed, Stewart, Dungey, Roczen? Nope add them all together and it doesn't even compare to what Travis Pastrana sold by doing FMX.

From what I remember is when Ricky went to Suzuki his contract was 3 million.

Shout out Arnold Palmer airport Latrobe pa haha

Shout out Latrobe Pa!

Yoooo Latrobe airport...if you know you know

what they're discussing in terms of pay is true in the private sector as well. lots of people who worked in tech & finance in the 90s and early to mid 00's made a KILLING. those days are pretty much over with...atleast in finance

I read that Bob Hannah started the higher salaries. Demanding more money from Yamaha. He is someone you should interview.

Superb. 👏👏😁

Good job getting these boys together!!! What out Steve Mathis

Keep talking dem numbers. The people want to know!! 😀🙂

That's why those guys are one of the best

When you’re earning as much money as they were as the greatest riders on this planet business efficiency and tax deductions only makes savvy business sense. You guys have been great ambassadors to the sport.

YOOO latrobe airport!! Thats the place to fly from!

Insane money! Whatever it takes.

This was so solid @gypsy!

Great video. Everyone thinks athletes make money hand over fist but nobody realizes the expense of being the best at your craft. Pro motocross is one of the lowest paid sports and the sponsors and owners take major advantage of the riders. Do you think a top 5 nascar driver is paying his own way to the track? Hell no. Chad and Ricky Know that wastes time is wasted opportunity so they saw the benefit for the expense. That’s one of the reasons they will always be known as the best ever. They invested that money in themselves just like a mechanic buys the latest tools. It’s to allow them to stay at the top of their game. It takes money to make money.

Legends!!!

Great video!

People think they make the money and go home. But as every business, they have to reinvest it to stay on par with the competition.

I wish more riders would talk about the money

Insane!

Bruh thanks for this is eye opening to actually hear the truth about money. Win payouts bonuses it would be crazy if you could get all guests to be open like this if I was into Moto cross this would give me drive grind hard ride hard get paid hard big checks 💪💯

Good god I didn’t realize how I was growing up in the real golden age of motocross.

2 legends

That gamble sure paid off

where is the full ?

Cabin altitude on a Gulfstream is WAY lower than a commercial aircraft. It would be an advantage to an athlete.

Dude that was way cool!

Hey Ricky, I'm from Pennsylvania

curious to know when this was recorded for track work being done in the background

Someday it would be amazing if you or someone could get James Stewart, Chad, and Ricky

5:21 pow!. That's what I'm going for!

Private charters are NOW? $7000.00 per hour!!!

I love it. RC spends half of his first pro salary on a S/X track to train himself up. It's easy to gamble on yourself when you've got that level of drive and commitment.

Best motocast next to 447

That's funny RC gave a shout-out with mentioning the Latrobe airport in PA I literally live minutes away from that airport he's right it's not much of a airport for the most part they sound like they were pretty frugal with their money!

I live in Latrobe Pennsylvania lol

Man, there aren’t many sports where the current generation makes less than the previous generation. Sad state of MX.

Where do you find the full length interview?

That's not Dyrdek in the thumbnail??

LEGENDS 🤙🏼

Legends 🤙

C'mon Ricky. Latrobe is big time. Once the home of Rolling Rock brewery.

Where are you guys?

He shouted out my hood. Latrobe baby

I got 25 grand and 15 of that went on a super Ross track POW

Both ledgens

It’s crazy to realize how much money these companies and guys were pouring into the scene. No wonder the economy tanked in ‘08.

Is that rob dyrdek

Motocross did take a dump in the past few years. Not the same kinda guys racing anymore.

Listening to Chad Reed lose his Australian accent more and more each year is unreal.

This guy needs more subs.... what do you all think?

This is why they need a union, or at least a school for the business end of the shitty end of the stick.

Why does ricky carmicheal look like rob dyrdeks twin brother?😂

Easy on latrobe airport shorty.🤣

Ricky used to date my best friend's sister, pretty cool dude...

Quit saying like

Money is lame. I think they have learned that by now. Jesus for the win bro’s

You guys should start a retired superstar circuit ! Instead of hour long moto's cut it to 10 plus one lap ? Fans would go ape shit !!! $$$$$

LMAO I live just north of Latrobe Airport in PA HAHAHA

If it fly’s, floats or fornicates-rent it. Warren Buffet quote , (I added the last bit)

all pga fly private

I cant really take CR22 to serious when He is talking like He worked his ass of more than the riders do today.. Rumors has that He liked to both train and party his ass of but no one really talks about that openly?

Are these 2 broke now?

Would love to see these guys on banshees
