Yeti aren't yeti without a DH bike in my eyes, all we need now is Cannondale so make a comeback haha
If you do a quick side by side of the EWS and UCI DH schedule, Richie and Cody could certainly hit a few spots with ease.
Lourdes is April 29-30 DH, then EWS in Portugal 13-14 of May. Ireland EWS May 28th. Then Fort Bill June 3-4. Leogang june 10-11, conflict with Vallnord July 1, lenzerheide July 8, MSA is aug 5-6, EWS in whistler on the 13th, VDS Aug 26
It's too easy to make a few dates. And they have had a prototype. For two years.

Yeti DH is imminent.
More than 2 years now and Yeti said they would only put it into production when everything is perfect.
With Richie the prototypes its pretty much a bike made for him, Im guessing it will be a full carbon beast.
I shot this in feb or march 16 in Toowoomba, Richie was staying with Jared and took the win on a SB6 with fox 40's on.
I personally can't wait to see a new Yeti DH bikeway fingers and toes are crossed for it to happen as they have always played a huge roll in the dh scene from the very beginning and have always pushed the envelop with crazy suspension designs.
Bernat and Ivan were both the team managers last year for Intense Factory. Ivan has moved on to start his own UCI World Cup team... IJ Racing/Intense Cycles
Also Josh Lewis in the gym with the Madison Saracen lot maybe a factory enduro team for them?Sa[img]https://p.vitalmtb.com/photos/forums/2017/01/03/4636/s1200_IMG_3297.jpg[/img]More

All he does is skids and make sick edits. If you were Saracen and wanting a enduro team there is a thousand riders you would want in it before him.

i doubt they would pull a 2 time EWS world champ out of the circuit to race downhill doesn't make any sense.

With a tight budget, other teams potentially dangling bigger payments and that riders desire is to be racing downhill over enduro ( I think there are some recent interviews of him stating that preference? ) I can see the only way Yeti has to keep him is compromising and allowing the handful of downhill races in the mix this year.
On the other hand one interesting thing to discuss is both Neko and Richie being past teammates with Gwin. I could see him wanting to trust prior relationships to poach for YT. Could that be the 4 man team? Gwin, Suarez, Rude, Mulally? Does YT want to conquer Enduro on top of DH this year? Rude doing EWS with some downhill on YT?

He has a big audience in the social media world which sometimes is more value than "just" being a fast racer.
Chance of him on Saracen are less than zero.
All that's happened is they have been up to Sheffield and in at the university all at the same time. That's why Evans is mentioned too. People trying to make leads out of nothing.
It's Deffo Rudarigh cunningham to the left.... the quiff gives it away.
Remi parting ways with Fox

I would not thought of that. I figured he might stay close to home (Norco or RM).

the main point? richie racing DH again would be SICK!

So Jack Moir is leaving Intence? Or just his mechanic?
