I was wondering the same thing, what does this mean for the team? Heard rumor about Peaty stepping down to allow a young American to step up.
If only Windham were on the schedule this year, I could see Peaty ride one last time in person
Drive a few extra hours to Mont Sainte-Anne, its well worth it.
I've considered making the trip, but its like 6+ hours whereas Windham is less than 2 and doesn't require a passport. I'm sure it would be worth it though.

Calling it now, Peaty to start an EWS team after he washes out of DH. Since enduro is for washed-up, has-been downhillers anyways. Graves, Cedric, Nico, Fabien, Leov, Tracey, ACC, Richie...

Just got back from Kendal Mountain Festival Bike Night where Greg Minnarr was interviewed on stage, When questioned, he answered that the Syndicate team would be staying "as is" for the 2016 season. Ratboy and Sam Dale were there too but neither were asked any questions about next season.

WTF!! This has to be a joke. After all Peaty's done for DH. I know rules are rules but c'mon
There ist already an answer from the UCI postet there - he will be able to race by either getting 30 UCI points at races (e.g. Australia, Argentina) or race in the Great Britain national kit

...not a trade team :-)

Means Lapierre is off downhill from now.

Sorry it's in French. It just tells us that Gilles Lapierre wants to get his brand out from DH on a good result (no reason given for that). They'll still be involved in Enduro racing but DH is over for them.
The article also points the Canyon rumor...
