Any rumours as to where he might be off to?

a bit strange that SC bought him out of his contract with commencal for 2024 just to drop him after one year.

My understanding is it was always a short term thing, basically filling Jackson's spot while he was injured...

Don’t imagine it cost an awful lot to buy him from his commencal contract - it wasn’t the main team iirc, it was the commencal/schwalbe team?

Orbea spotted in tue background of FMD how we roll ep 2 that came out yesterday. Hardies bikes carries Obrea but seems a bit sly given rumors.

If that is the gearbox bike he gets points for blacking out where the derailleur cage would be...

I can’t make out a chain, so I think he is playing. 
Could be a new frame sponsor too I guess since his contract is up (?).

Whoever did the computer thing to Danny’s post to uncover his blacked out handlebars a few pages back, can you do the same to this? Help us luddites out.

I rode a certain bike park in the uk this week and saw a certain rider testing a bike, wearing all the kit and tyres testing wheels and compounds! I won’t elaborate anymore to avoid being told not to go back. NE England is all I’ll say

I would guess so, not too many bike parks in the NE of England.

Do Atherton’s have enough points to be a top ranked team?

Just listened to the MUTN podcast , moves I hadn't heard before were Cam Bal to Yeti , heather Wilson to Mondraker and Greg Williamson to Gamux .

The other one was the MS team off Mondraker frames and on GT but obviously that looks unlikely now although I would imagine contracts would of been already signed so who knows.

Worth adding that the rumor about felix Griffiths paying for a spot on the syndicate is untrue and he's there the same as any other rider .

It was striking how many big names there are outside of the ranked teams that might not be able to race world cups  next year.

Did NOT have Cam to Yeti on my bingo card; stoked to see what she and Richie can do!

pretty sure jesse will be a one man show on canyon, i guess he‘s the only one with a contract for 2025 (signed 3 years AFAIK).

MS was already on intense in 2024, so that can‘t be true.

Based on what has been said about GT, it seems the decision was, for all intents and purposes, quite abrupt. Could be MS was making a deal or had a deal done before GT got the rug pulled from underneath of them. On the other hand you'd think someone approving budgets would know of both the option of GT getting hibernated AND the MS deal being in the works and might give a heads up on not letting the deal being made? On the third hand said person privy to that information could not care one bit about the MS team and just let it happen (the infamous bean counters in suits and all).

All of this is pure speculation obviously.
