We should crowdfund an RM race team.
Make the racers ride 26" wheels, flat pedals, baggy kit, frankenbrakes, shocks tuned with electrical tape...

agreed. I can't watch this crap.
BUT! if they were to bring an updated Drop In back to life ....
I absolutely love watching trashy reality TV. That and comedy is prettty much all I ever watch on TV.
Ok. So it's not exactly "Love Island" level of reality entertainment but Pinkbike Accademy is fairly watchable for a first try.
You do realise Cathro's Pinkbike "Privateer: Walk the talk" series is pretty much reality TV format too. yeah?

I'm hanging in to see a love triangle develop between Cathro and the other contestants, which makes things tricky when someone is facing elimination after betrayal occurs within the tribe and the other housemates are forced to vote someone off the Bachelor Island.
Actually I'd watch the fuck out of the new Pinkbike series if Gordon Ramsey was yelling at them the whole time.
Reality tv usually feels genuinely fake...
FWIW
FWIW
That's an extremely tricky love triangle considering Cathro isn't on the Academy show at all.
I fucking hate Gordon Ramsay. The only time I'd watch that cunt is if I'd found out a restaurant owner/employee finally batters him.
Turns out "Uncle Roger" is a legit comedian. I caught him on Mock the Week a couple of weeks ago (which btw is a great show). I thought he did pretty well.
Aaron Gwin to Bad Chad Customs. He changed his last name to Rand to preserve his identity.
reece wilson stays w/ trek for "foreseeable future". no specifics on how long the contract is.

Reece Wilson Officially Re-Signs With Trek Factory Racing - Pinkbike
Despite swirling rumours, the World Champion stays with Trek for the foreseeable future.
"Foreseeable future" in a time when wild, unpredictable and unprecedented shit happens like every 20 minutes? Sounds like Reece should keep his resume up to date.
that means: stay on the podium and you have a job.reece wilson stays w/ trek for "foreseeable future". no specifics on how long the contract is.

And as expected, Vergier is leaving the Syndicate with his next destination still unclear.
thst should open a well deserved spot for hoffmann
Pretty sure she just wants to do her own thing albeit with some factory support.
I'll call it ... Loris to Commencal.
rumor mill is Angel Suarez to Commencal, Vergier to Spesh.
I read something about a new HSP Trek, anyone has some more data about it?
xc related .... batty off trek. rumor is to canyon.
also rumors that SC is starting an XC team.

No more Frenchists on Syndicate

i wonder if this has anything to do with the rumors of SC starting an XC team?
Maxine Marotte is always a threat, and is still unsigned as of right now.
Her race form has been terrible for a couple of years, but I'm sure her social meeja following is pretty large.
I thought her trainer/husband is starting a team. Maybe part of the Cllctv?
Terrible? No. Inconsistent, sure. 3rd at world's in 2018, with 4 podiums that year and 3rd overall. 2019 was an off year for sure, despite her best finish being 46th she still managed 22nd overall.
Barelli off commencal.
Not terribly surprising since he's not going to race anymore. Still, I'm surprised they didn't just throw some money at him to make some videos. He's funny as hell, and a great rider.
Agreed. My guess is that he pulls in more money for Commencal (or any bike brand) than anyone who is not in the top five tier in the WC circuit.
His videos are are pretty much the only bike related videos I watch personally speaking. He’s funny, breaks down trails well and gives you a good perspective on the sport.
Are you confusing Yoann with Remi?
Highly Sensitive Person?
High Single Pivot
Yeah. I must be missing something cause it still don't make sense.
I don't mind Barelli but think you're overstating his "clout" a bit here. Plenty of guys not racing WCs but getting many more views. It's a crowded market these days and Remy's got the Frenchie in BC niche pretty well covered.
This being the racing rumors thread aside,
a new Remy Mettalier video is about the only new media that I'll "stop everything" for and watch. He is just off the charts this past year.
