Looking for a job... Any ideas?
We should evaluate what we know about DV from his racing career, press releases, magazine ads, general media come up with a list of jobs for him. If you know DV first hand all the better.
I will start it with... smooth riding style coach, goon riding accessor, racer turned journalist (i.e. Ping)
come on we should help a moto brother out!

Sounds like you've heard Ping is departing the TLD team? Is he switching careers to journalist/fireman/video star? By the way is DV back in the states, what's up with Gaultier Paulin situation?

DV just got back in the States. He was helping Gautier only to prep for the season. With Gautier getting hurt before the first GPs and missing 4 or 5 of them, it kind of threw DV and GP's work out of through the window.
GP is catching up to the rhythm but his pre-season injury is a weight right now.

Matthes was joking with Jake Weimer in his podcast about signing with another agent and not Steve. But maybe Steve should start the R.R.J.A. (retired racers job agency), he could have two clients right away DV and now Ferry. Someone needs to get these racers off the street and into gainful employment. I mentioned to @cobra934 he could hold the boom mic for the "Bottom Line" show, or he could be a "Canadian" translator for Steve between the riders (foreign or american and the Pulpmx interviewer). I see a real need here, what if 7-time gets bored at home working the farm or coaching the kids, what if MC ends his Honda gig where will he go, if the guys had an agent Bradshaw wouldn't have to slum it in Monster trucks, he could be a riding coach or a rookies man friend? These champs will need help!

I would love to see DV12 as a team manager. Hopefully he does end up somewhere in the Industry.He is a good personality for the sport. He could definitely start a goon riding school he is the man when it comes to that. Every time I think of that video I crack up.
team manager, riders mentor, rider's coach, rider's agent, commentator. TLD Team manager
