Duncan Riffle, Giant Factory Off-Road Part Ways
You say Dunc, I say Dawg! Duncan Riffle just sent over this info explaining his departure from Giant. Good luck, mang! -gordo
As of January 2012 Duncan Riffle and the GIANT Factory Off-Road Race Team will be parting ways. After a successful and exciting two years racing the UCI World Cup circuit, US Open, Crankworx, US Gravity tour races and other select international events together, Riffle will not be on the Giant Factory Off-Road Racing program and is on the hunt for a new team.

Duncan says, “It has been a real pleasure to represent such a brand as GIANT and work with so many amazing people. It really has been an honor; we have had a lot of success and some exciting times. I have learned an irreplaceable amount and would like to personally thank everyone who has helped me along the way.
I look forward to finding a new home where I can continue to pursue my racing and riding goals. There are so many new exciting things happening within the industry. With new racing series and disciplines, I will to continue to challenge myself to the very fullest while being a positive influence and ambassador for this great sport of cycling.”
Enjoy some good times with Duncan and Needles last spring

It's very weird… I can not figure out what happened cause he was the one who helped, almost everything, to come the new giant glory.. So, that's really weird that now, after a victorius year for giant, duncan has to part.
Anyway, it's gonna be easy to find a new team cause he's phenomenal on a bike!!!
( bet you that sic mick is probably going to join GIANT!!! )
