GO211 and Donny Robinson would like to congratulate the following community members for submitting questions to the GO211 Team Q and A: Spencer from Carmel, New York Age 13 John from East Bernstadt, Kentucky age 17 Danny Caluag from Chino, California Donald from Canada age 41 Tori Dains from Spanaway, WA age 17

59. Who is your favorite athlete?
from: Danny Caluag
I like Shaun White just because he's done a pretty deece job with his whole successful action sports career but I'm starting to like Roger Federer more and more. He's been losing a lot more than he ever has and you are starting to see the passion and drive he has.

58. What holds in the future for the Don?
from: Danny Caluag
My genie in a bottle holds my future. I don't know what's gonna happen. Just live my life and go with what is thrown my way.

57. What is up with the lower case d and Capital R?
from: Danny Caluag
It's my creation. If I did Dr. then people would think I'm a doctor. dr just doesn't look good, so dR had some flavor and I like it.

56. Do you have a drivers license?
from: Danny Caluag
Yes but I didn't get it until I was like 20. Apparently during a hospital visit many years ago they marked me as having blackouts so the DMV didn't want someone blacking out on the road. Took a while to get that fixed.

55. Do you own a car?
from: Danny Caluag
No. Does that make me "un-cool?" I ride my bike everywhere because I'm a BMXer and if I take my girl out I throw her in my basket.

54. Favorite Number?
from: Danny Caluag
1

53. Favorite Color?
from: Danny Caluag
Orange

52. Flying or Driving?
from: Danny Caluag
I'm scared to death of flying but I hate the time it takes to drive. Can't we time-warp yet?

51. Water or land?
from: Danny Caluag
Land. My uncle threw me in the pool when I was young so I'm not a big fan of water.

50. Clips or Flats?
from: Danny Caluag
Clips. Sorry dirt jumpers...

49. Traditional or Supercross track?
from: Danny Caluag
Supercross track is the Olympic standard so that's gotta be my fav but traditional tracks are my roots and I love those as well.

48. Paved or Dirt turns?
from: Danny Caluag
Paved turns, except when you fall.

47. What are your thoughts on the Random gate
from: Danny Caluag
Overall the random gate is best because you don't exactly know when the gate is going to fall so you can't anticipate it like you can the ABA gate. It makes it more fair for everyone.

46. What are your thoughts on the ABA gate?
from: Danny Caluag
I like the ABA gate but it allows riders to slingshot and cheat their way out of the gate. If people didn't slingshot then the ABA gate would still rock.

45. How do you like these Q and A?
from: Danny Caluag
I love them. Lets people get to know athletes better. How do you like asking so many questions?

44. What were the Olympics like?
from: Danny Caluag
Carraaazzzzyyyy. Olympic village was nuts because you saw Phelps and Usain Bolt and everyone else just chillin' so that was good. Then of course the race itself and viewing the other events was just an opportunity that I'm blessed to have been a part of.

43. What is your favorite place to travel to?
from: Danny Caluag
Frejus, France. The South of France is the bomb.

42. Who are you sponsored by?
from: Danny Caluag
Hyper Bicycles, Monster Energy, Kicker Audio, Go211.com, at&t, Nike, Tioga, Tektro, FLY Racing and apparently I sponsor Danny Caluag for ear buds so don't even think you are getting any more!

41. How did you like bakersfields track?
from: Danny Caluag
Between you and me the track was terrible. Loose dirt, bumpy, small, easy jumps. It wasn't my kind of track, but to each their own...

40. How did you like bakersfield gate?
from: Danny Caluag
I liked the gate in Bakersfield for the race except for gates 5 and 6 but gate 6 was the worst. I'm sure you saw/felt the bump that was in it. Luckily I had gate 6 in both my semis so I'm still mad about that. You were in gate 7 on Sunday and we were battling for last place I think.
