Brook macdonald selling a 2023 foxy. Something to do with mondraker leaving ms racing?
Brook macdonald selling a 2023 foxy. Something to do with mondraker leaving ms racing?
I'm not sure Brook even has a ride for 2024. But I believe it's already been discussed that MS is parting ways with Mondraker and then the rumours were that MS Intense would be the new team and that's where Dak Norton was going.
And if you are reading these and shouldn't be for your mental health Dak.... Get off vital forums and go work on your pit bike track lol.
Transition already has a Danger list of fast girls why not add another and start an Enduro team? Who else might be headed to a theoretical Transition Enduro team!?

Marco Osborne already races enduro for Transition, he hasn't been doing EWS but maybe he's going to step it up next season?

Transition is fire sale'ing bikes now (like everyone else). They haven't had a full blown EWS/EDR team in the past. Doubt they will be doing something in 2024 with money running dry. Might partially sponsor Bex though, since she's a single rider. But I wouldn't base that on her following them on Instagram.

Few brands are born into racing, but when Gary Turner welded the first GT BMX frame in his SoCal garage for his son in 1972, that’s exactly how GT came to exist.
In the last fifty years, GT has raced everything and everywhere; from BMX to XC, Slalom to Downhill, Enduro to road. Heck, GT even created the ‘96 Atlanta Superbike project for the USA National Track team. On this journey, we’ve won Olympic medals, World titles, World Cups, National and European Championships all in a style unique to our brand.
For the last eight years, our GT Factory Racing Team (GTFR) has competed at the highest level in the UCI Downhill World Cup series and EDR races, with an extended family of riders including: Wyn Masters, Rachel Strait, Anneke Beerten, Martin Maes, Sam Dale, Brook McDonald, Jackson Frew, George Brannigan, Joey Foresta, Johannes ‘Denim Destroyer’ Vonklebelsberg, Noga Korem, Ethan Craik, Katy Winton, Jess Blewitt and Ryan ‘Pinky’ Pinkerton.
The team has achieved an incredible forty-one WC/EDR podiums, eleven WC/EDR wins, two World Cup overall titles and two World Championship podiums. We couldn’t be prouder of these talented athletes and to have the opportunity to support Wyn’s Privateer Project and our Junior Development teams, all helping the next generation to reach the top.
During this time, GTFR has been supported by some of the World's leading brands, including Continental, Shimano, FSA, Fox Suspension, Alpinestars, Stans, Krush, Rimpact, EThirteen, Prologo, GoPro, ODI, Bell, Sombrio, FiveTen, WTB, Skullcandy, Schwalbe, Michelin and Vittoria
The GTFR team finished this season on a huge high as Ethan stood on his first World Cup podium in MSA and Pinky won the World Cup Junior title overall, but 2023 marks the last season of the current edition of the GTFR program. It may be the end of the chapter, but this is not the end of the story. For 2024, our race presence will come in the form of bolstering regional teams and grass roots programs - where future champions are born.

This is interesting, especially the final paragraph. Theres a really quick young dh racer from nz (jonty Williamson) whos a local to the same park as me, was talking with him the other week and he mentioned that he might have a sponsorship lined up with GT bikes for some kind of gravity team. Lines up with what gt said in the final paragraph
This is a bit off topic, but because it's been brought up so many times with respect to teams future's and such, has anyone noticed that the UCI's amendments for World Championships mention 10 disciplines, but EDR and E-EDR are listed together? It's only World Champs and not a series, but it would be pretty odd nowadays to have a UCI series without a World Championship.
"The UCI world championships shall comprise eight ten specialities: the Olympic cross-country Olympic (XCO), the cross-country marathon (XCM), the crosscountry team relay (XCR), the cross-country short track (XCC), the cross-country eliminator (XCE), the downhill individual (DHI), E-Mountain Bike (E-MT
, the enduro/e-enduro (EDR/E-EDR), the snow bike (SNO) and the pump track (PUM)."
Guessing but…Greg to leave SC so they can keep J,L,N again another money and budget situation
rumour was he would announce retirement after worlds last year...

Edr WONT be full battery power in 2025.
EDR is here to stay
I guess a worlds announced soon for EDR.
I don't see Greg retiring after the season he's had this year, he's got unfinished business...

What is the E-MTB race and how is it supposed to be different from the E-EDR?
I said it before. I didn’t think the teams were “folding”, “dissolving”, or discontinuing their race programs. They are restructuring, renaming(new sponsors), and doing new contracts. The landscape has changed dramatically, especially with the costs of going racing and the new formats/schedule.
They had an opportunity to sell the idea that they were all “done” because we didn’t really know what was going on. Then they turn around and release a new team intro video. That’ll get lots of views/clicks.
I heard BK is taking up a new career in dog grooming

I believe there was rumblings Dorval was folding.
A former turquoise rider soon to transitioning to a new team.
Aaah, I love beer from Bremen too, man!
I'm gonna be proud of myself if I was right when I said Bex is headed to transition haha.
Some big rumours that Drew Carrey will be commentating next year
The goat is leaving the herd...
I was assured of that last year. Then I was that guy who said I know something but can't tell. Then it didn't happen. We'll see...
Gwin on the horse and the GOAT in the box? I’m here for it
From Benoit… doesn’t seem like team is shutting down?
maybe just new sponsor replacing dorval and new name?
Guessing but…Greg to leave SC so they can keep J,L,N again another money and budget situation
rumour was he would announce retirement after worlds last year but it didn’t happen.
Edr WONT be full battery power in 2025.
EDR is here to stay
I guess a worlds announced soon for EDR.

If we don’t look at SNO it can’t hurt us.
EDR World Champs are in Aletsch/Bellwald in 2025, was announced a while ago now. Pretty certain it has been posted here before?
There's an EDR World Cup in the same place next year.

I don't see Greg retiring after the season he's had this year, he's got unfinished business...
His rumoured move would be considered thinking outside the box. Compass points N.

Teams rumored to be folding:
I'm actually glad several of the rumored dissolution of racing teams were incorrect.
Let's face it, we are in a niche sport and there aren't many of these jobs going around.
