They also called us 'keyboard warriors'.

EDIT: They changed the homepage to 'The keyboard sleuths guessed it right.' now.

A lot has been said about Greg leaving ONeill, but Fox must be paying a premium to get Peaty off Royal. Sick team tho!
Ohhhh. I forgot about Royal. He probably still gets to run Royal since he's not racing racing.

The Instagram post mentions that all team members, including Peaty, will "...roll into this year in Fox Racing gear from head-to-toe".

Ah, thanks. I deleted my account on Instagram a while ago, so it's hard for me to see all of the text.

Connor to Forbidden? He seemed to race almost more enduro than downhill this year. + there seems to be more and more forbidden riders around bromont...
Connor to Forbidden?
He seemed to race almost more enduro than downhill this year. + there seems to be more and more forbidden riders around bromont, where his team mechanic lives? Just a wild guess
Guess I was right all along...

I always thought he was directly involved in the company. Pretty sure in the (really) early days (96/97) he invested in it..

I though he co-founded it but I though they sold to some bigger company 1round 10 years ago.

Izabela is at the same time in La Poma like Loic Bruni.
Somebody said something about this earlier.

I just wonder what got Santa Cruz to expand to 4 riders again? Kathy had said in an interview before that 3 riders seem to be the good number for them..

Got to pick up riders when available especially when your only returning rider could retire at any time.

well, he did sign with GG for 15 years. I'd wager there's probably some influence from that as far as whoever he picks up for suspension / drivetrain / brakes.
