The AMA Superbike really missed Eric Bostrom this year. EBoz was one of the great personalities of the series and a fan favorite, not to mention one of the most talented racers on the planet. Maybe after a year off Eric will get the fire again to come back. Let’s hope so. He’s two years younger than his brother Ben and Ben’s not doing too badly. Come on back EBoz. The series needs you now more than ever.
