what a team. Old School meets old school! 😍
Who had Sam Hill to Foes on their bingo card?
Sam to Foes? - Wild.
I've been on a Foes Mixer and their Ridgeback for a while now. Rad bikes but definitely don't fit the mass produced mold. Excited to see where this goes! I'm guessing that small team in Pasadena is going to be flooded w/ calls today hahah
no, but I like it.
Ronan Dune just received his RB helmet !! Well deserved !
Well that's it I guess! Here's to the most interesting/exciting/longest #teamrumors year i ever. See you guys in a few months. Unless I'm missing something...
Old news. This was "known" a while back. Just that there were no loose lips.
Brent's building a World Cup DH bike again.
figured with the white helmet he's been running that the RB helmet was on it's way at some point this season.
Makes sense
I was doing a long drive a few weeks back and listened to Nigel Paige’s podcast with Brent Foes. Brent eluded to the fact that, in his opinion, the current crop of DH bikes could be better and he has a slew of ideas based from his Motorsport experience that he wants to try. They never blatantly admit it, but it sounds Nigel might have a hand in a start up team that will ride proto Foes bikes in the big leagues.
Does he also get a walk-in cooler full of Red Bull?
Especially with the new electric Ohlins stuff.
Hes going to drive them out of business. What did he say his final count was for race day in Poland? 8 Or something? Well deserved though! Is he the second Irish rider with a redbull lid now?
Is the Red Bull count real? I assumed it was some inside joke that just keeps goin that he drinks tons of them. If not I hate to see him in 10 years if he keeps that up.
I think it’s pretty legit cause he’s said before when he has too many and overdid it. But who really knows.
IIRC there was one race recently where he copped to 6 and said it was too many, 8 sounds a bit worrying if it's true...
Makes me happy. Foes making a play to get back to being a more common name. Good way to do it.
Wait, is caffeine intake still monitored in professional sports? I thought it was. If I drank 6 redbulls I would probably die from axiety
.
My riding bud has been running a Foes Mixer for years now & has been talking about buying something new.
This signing practically guarantees he'll be forced to buy another out of sheer hope of a return to glory.
I still love the lines of the DHS. Only red bike I ever drooled over.
I had that bike (in black) back in the day. A beast in straight line chunk for sure.
I can still hear that noise those older Foes made
They really measure your caffeine intake?
I love a RedBull, but if I drink even 1 8.4oz can right before I ride my heart rate gets out of control at the start. I have to drink it about a half hour before. No idea how he could possibly drink that many right before a race run.
It's not currently regulated by WADA: https://www.usada.org/spirit-of-sport/science/substance-profile-caffein…
Biggest team change of them all,
Rob Roskopp to Specialized
some say if you hold a Foes to your ear you can still hear the swan song of the last century and, the rocks of the early otts!
Zink on something new
Hasn't he been working on his own design? Curious to see what he builds or who he signs with.
He said in an interview earlier this year that he is working on his own frame / brand.

I'm not sure this is something to be proud about.........
