Oh man, I could beat this topic with a broken stick until it returned back to life. Rampage athletes get an appearance fee ever since 2015. Why not the slope guys? Most the slope guys dont actually make that much. I did Pretty good for 15 years. Id average probably 65K USD all said and done over those 15 years. Less when I started and the bigger years in the middle. That is sponsorships and winnings and any travel budgets. BUT I would spend at least 30k of that on traveling and expenses. So that 3k a month before taxes...

Without the athletes you do not have a show to put on... So ya, they should be paid a base amount to compete, that goes for all professional disciplines where a gate fee is charged to watch the event.

Gwin just said they should be announcing the bike by the end of the week on the IG live thing going on right now.

First I am hearing of this, I don't believe it!

No longer a mystery....

On a positive note, we will get to see Frotha go racing again this year. Signed up under RAW Fusion Racing.

Oook so gentlemen, this has been a nice couple of months following this thread, we had good fun. So at this point of the conversation I guess I'll see myself out to avoid any new nonsense comment about Katy or any other women. Grow up, FFS.

We get it, you don’t like Katy. You met her in a bar after a race and she turned you down didn’t she! Now take your pathetic childness; your buddy MoscoOne and get lost back to discord or reddit or whatever shithole you normally frequent.

Out of curiosity, I looked into her results. They are absolutely impressive!!! Katy WINTON's results - Roots & Rain (rootsandrain.com)

“ MoscoOne wrote: Katy couldnt fill in her forms properly.“ Making fun of a rider for having dyslexia, particularly when they have very recently addressed publicly that it’s a hard thing for them to be open about due to teasing and bullying, is just truly low behaviour and is not appropriate on this forum or anywhere else. If this is something you would do, or think is acceptable, please fuck off.

Not going to engage in this anymore. Hope you can find something positive in your life so you don’t have let out your misery by spending your time online slating racers for losing their jobs in a struggling industry. Have a nice day

There’s no place for that attitude here, I suggest you quieten down or find positive things to say. Straight up, people are losing their livelihoods this year and they’re going to be in turmoil, put yourself in their shoes and be kind or keep your hate in that thick skull.

For the same reason “no one wants”: Danny Hart, Cole Lucas, Greg Callaghan, Bex Baroana, the list goes on… The sport is struggling at the moment, kicking riders whilst they’re down is a weird hill to die on

Luckily racing and results are more complex than your opinion

A couple of podiums and a few years ago a top five rider near on every race. Yeah, never a top rider…

Sacha Earnest on Trek Factory, was this public before UCI dump? She did ride Trek last year but at least now officially on the factory team. Hattie Harnden also there and has DH labeled.

That pic is insane.
