Thanks in advance,

This is what's on Facebook.
Also the helmet seems to be an Alpinestars (like Brooks helmet) and not an Oneal one (Minnaars helmet and clothing sponsor).
The tech shows when the World Champs in Kona roll around are very interesting.
I'll see myself out...
Is luca shaw’s contract up at the syndicate, as he joined they same time as loris?
If loris joins Trek who will leave, they surly won’t have 4 Elite riders on the team? Reece?
Does Wallace have a contract / still fit in the budget with the Canyon Capiltal Letter Consonent Collective?
How long are Edwards and Harrison on trek for?
Think kade, Harrison and Wilson all signed with the new trek team end of 2018. So would have done 2 seasons? Contracts seem to be 2-3 years, don’t they ?
I can see Wilson being up for grabs. As world champ and a racer on the up swing trek will either push to keep him or he'll end up with a fresh contract on another team.
Is Gee a dad yet? Isn't that an Enduro prerequisite? Maybe Danny's actually going Enduro for Cube? But really, I wouldn't see Rach doing Enduro, she's hated on pedalling to the point it's annoying to hear her talk about it. Gee maybe would, it would be smart since Enduro bikes are likely the bulk of what they'll sell.
I don’t follow many riders on the gram but surely sponsored riders should have Scott Factory rider as the main heading in any bio during a contract ?
Sounds like Danny sorta talk, or Rob just playing mind games. If so, well done Rob, you got me!
Rach is retiring, gee carries on racing and Charlie stays with them
Danny to cube or he may also retire
Coronavirus pandemic means there’s riders from this year on 1 year contracts who won’t get rides next year as budgets are cut (and despite bicycle companies selling a few bikes this year) marketing And team budgets are reduced. Given the higher costs involved with travel and further uncertainty into 2021 and companies wanting to keep staff in jobs.
Same reason why a small amount of racing happed this year. To keep the industry going and keep staff with jobs.
BTW loris leaving Syndicate would be weird. Let's nor forget how much he "values" his suspension setup/thinkering, going to a RS team would mean big changes with that and moving over with the Fox race assistance apparatus (not saying RS is worse, I'm not sure how they handle suspension tuning at WC).
And yeah, Loris going away from Fox would sure be weird. But he should kinda be used to it from the Gravity Republic days (they switched over to Ohlins a bit later than switching to Specialized).
• Trek is getting a "French big name" (likely Loris)
• Dak Norton might be looking for a team for 2021
• Reece staying at Trek
Anything else I missed?
And yea Dean stayed home for sure, i think it was actually odd to see Moir and the other Aussie/Kiwi crew off their islands with the travel restrictions in place other than Brook who had a horse to get back on. Can't even begin to say how stoked i was to see him crush it like he did. Legend.
I hope he lands a good ride, that guy is a future WC winner in my eyes.
