 Jesse on his way to Santa Cruz? 

Where did the second image come from? Nothing from his posts has any address I can see?

I put Santa Cruz Bikes address in my GPS starting from the border crossing Jesse is going through. Almost identical time and identical KM's to destination.

I could see Santa Cruz revamping their EWS presence like they did with their XC presence. Right now they just have Mark Scott and Iago Garay, and i bet freeing up the  50to01 payroll could help with putting a proper team together.

Also an option. In addition to Specialized, Ibis or SC. But if he is going for testing, he would also not be on Canyon.

It feels like Jesse is too smart to be sleuthed upon this easily. My guess is he's genuinely headed to a U.S.-based brand for his next job, and he's totally messing with us on the map. With gas prices in the upper 3's (BC to OR) to low 4's (Cali) and over 1000 miles on the road to cover, it would seem to make more financial sense to fly to Santa Cruz, if he was really headed there.

Jesse is known to fool with us on this site, I think he's headed closer to the border than we think.

Agree, after the espresso machine fake out, posting a maps saying hes going to work could go either way. He knows how obsessed we are with where he's going. In fact, he might be watching us all....right........now............

 Maybe I'm the real Jesse......

The way the airports and air travel are right now, especially on the west coast, plus potentially picking up a butt-load of bikes and merch, why not drive?

Of course, all of it is probably a giant troll 🤣🤣


So, maybe I've missed it somewhere, but why is no one talking about Troy Brosnan? Google says it's a contract year.

The man’s profile pic is a ? right now. He is putting all efforts into the trolling. He might be going somewhere for his new job, but he is going to have fun with it first.

Just a hunch, but I'm thinking Loic pulled some strings and his ol' teammate from Lapierre is going to be doing some Gen-S mentoring

This is a Blenki reference, eh?

So he's staying in the @iamspecialized family, but not racing for Specialized gravity? Does that mean he's moving to enduro? Away from racing world cups? I"m confused.

I thought that rumor was Jordan Williams? If they are picking him up, it makes sense to drop the other young guy. Loic, Finn, Jordan would be a sick lineup.

I think the troll is likely.  He’s probably just headed south to ride.  It’s that time of year and I’m sure he’s frothing to defend that title.  Oregon is a long day drive and has a ton of year round riding.  
 

hope he’s having as much fun as we are

That would honestly be amazing for the future of DH racing- Jordan learning from those guys, Jackson learning from Peaty, Greg, Laurie, and Nina...

 

Massive talent learning from massive talent AND experience.

The address search is between the two images.

Sam Pilgrim off Haibike with new sponsor to be revealed January 4th! 
 

he says in the video that the new sponsor is one of, if not the biggest bike brand in the world, with a sick team focussed on ‘trickery’… Trek?

This is probably Josh Lewis, who will be riding for Forbidden.

Dylan Siggars would make more sense than Loose. But we will see.

Seems like it, especially since Loose rides in Etnies. What about the Chromag cockpit though? I hadn't heard anything about anyone in 50:01 departing from Burgtec.

Edit: Dylan Siggers seems to fit the picture, he uses a Chromag bar, stem, and seat.

Forbidden seems like an odd choice for a jib bike but i guess we’ll see

Agreed, and I didn’t get along with my Druid, but have you seen Alex Storr ride? He does things with it that shouldn’t be possible so I think Loose will be fine. If it’s him.
