or maybe there’s just more mentally sane people here than in your Truth Social filter bubble. now get the turd that is US politics out of here and let’s talk about bikes and bikers again

#VitalEquestrian Anyway, this thread cannot end until Sam Hill says so

His "advisors and lawyers" have to be losing their damn minds over these statements to the press. Not sure how things work in France, but as both an attorney and avid fan of American football, I know how these situations are supposed to be handled in the US: you have one of your "advisors or lawyers" issue, or draft for you to issue, a public statement that says nothing in a competent and measured manner, explain that you can't comment for legal reasons, project confidence by claiming that look forward to all the facts coming to light and clearing your...

I'm not sure an Mtb forum is really the best venue to argue about rape conviction rates to be honest.

It sounds like a a complex story. In https://fullattack.cc/thibaut-daprela-et-canyon-reagissent-a-la-fin-pre…, Thibaut said : "inherit a particular legal situation following the end of the collaboration with [his] previous team, which was studied with the Canyon legal department. [However, it is] after studying this situation that the decision was taken jointly with Canyon to end the collaboration." It sounds like we are talking here about some sponsorship conflicts...or what else could it be?.. Even if it's the real reason, it's surprising that the contract situation has not been cleared way earlier or they could not find any amicable solutions with the different parties...

I found all I needed in the comments. A great chuckle. So glad I deleted my account but would love to read the downvoted comments.

From PB-"I just found out about the allegations. And I have to say, I’m not shocked. There was always something about him that rubbed me the wrong way, even when he was seeing some success, I wasn’t stoked." You see this is the level of informed discourse we should aspire to on here.

get your popcorn as pinkbike got a little derailed thread on pompon article ; )

The adverse publicity just from the allegation may have been enough for them to let him go. I would have thought he would've been charged by now if the police (and the prosecution service) believed there was a case, seeing as this goes all the way back to last summer. From what I've seen he hasn't been, although I don't know if laws on confidentiality are different in France to the UK. I say this because a guy I know was falsely accused of rape, was charged and named by the press within a couple of weeks of the accusation...

Departs from 2 teams in 3 months. Now has "advisors and lawyers" to deal with the rumors surrounding the circumstances. I'll withhold judgment until more facts come out, but I'll be very surprised if Daprela comes out of this clean.

The Vojo article has been updated to include a response from Thibaut.. https://www.vojomag.com/news/thibaut-daprela-sexprime-on-a-clairement-e… Vojo managed today to get in direct contact with Thibaut Dapréla who spoke publicly about his double departure in just a few months, first from the Commençal team, then from Canyon CLLCTV. Here are the pilot's reactions. Before we begin, let’s provide some context. This Thursday, March 14, Thibaut Dapréla announced on his social networks his separation, by mutual agreement, from the Canyon CLLCTV team where he had only just arrived (at the beginning of January) from the Commencal Muc-Off team where he had been since his...

Unless it’s been edited, there’s no further information in this article

Dam Ream Tumors, just when I thought I was out, you PULL me back in!!!

Thibaut is biting his tongue holding the truth back.
