New rumor I think? Milatul Khaqimah of Indonesia, with 420 pts (top ranked rider without a team in any category, except for Veronika Widmann) was put on Intense Factory in the spreadsheet by somebody. I looked into it, and she has very few followers on Instagram, and barely any from europe/north america. But... Joe Breeden, Lou Ferg, Mille Johnset, and Oscar Griffiths all follow her.

Bring back Grundig, Shaun Palmer and shorts in DH and I'll die happy tomorrow.

Not sure it this one has been mentioned before but apparently XC Santa Cruz team is gone (it wasnt a factory team but a private Italian team sponsored by Santa Cruz). Luca Braidot to another italian team. And I've heard that a continental junior champion will be joining Mondraker factory team.

I would love to see Izabela joining the gravity team but I’m still not sure if she can train after that horrible car crash that she had.

That Trek team is stacked with future winners IMO. Sick to see the Union system working, sad to see it disbanded.

I'd posit that a small-ish brand like Intense just couldn't field the costs associated with running 2 elite level teams.

I might have missed it, but did Atherton Racing do a farewell post for Andi Kolb? He was a great addition to their team, and it is a bummer he has moved on. His talents will be missed.

I’d assume people would prefer to be on teams with coaches and nutritionists and multiple line spotters and psychologists. Basically a ton more support. If I were to make a guess, that’s probably why the Jewett brothers went elsewhere. They’re super talented racers but they need coaches and psychologists to go up the results sheet and that doesn’t seem to be an option with PFR. I don’t know anything about BK as a person. I thought the Jenna thing was wild and something I wouldn’t do but Morganne and Emilie (sp?) have enough pull in their public standing and industry...

If you don't still have this on DVD, are you really even a mountain biker? Earthed 4 is sacred. It set the absolute tone of what the aggressive DH/FR scene felt like at the time. It was so affirming and inspiring, it was instant stoke. I bought nearly every record that had each song from the soundtrack. I still listen to most of them these days, although Too Short isn't on the playlist very often. But 'Blow the Whistle' was a classic example of Rankin knowing how to capture the energy he was feeling at the event and translate it...

I was wondering where Hrastnik was at in all this, she seemed to have slipped under the radar so far and is the only top 10 racer on the ladies side other than Cami that hasn't had an announcement yet. Also hoping Widmann gets scooped up by someone who needs a couple more points. Going to be honest, I hate it, but the points are making team rumors a bit more fun this year to see how everything fits together as things are announced.

1/14/2025 2:14am To me it was clear it was SRAM, he was a Blackbox athlete, all that jazz. But you make an interesting assessment here and I could be in the wrong. And thinking of that, I realise that Stikman is very active on this forum, works for SRAM (although not with athletes, from what I understand) and I just couldn't picture...

Try 10 years.. Sam was on Nukeproof from 2013-2023 and Sram/Rockshox for nearly 20 years (2005ish to 2024?) Regardless, stoked to see him and some other "old dogs" race Hardline in less than a month edit, apparently I can't count because 13-23 is 11 seasons

Phil losing sponsorship almost annoys me the most out of all of this. All the guy has to do is post a phone clip on a dodgy pleney loamer and I'm convinced to buy the bike. Brands will regret giving up large engagment numbers on social media just to save a few quid in the short term.

With respect Phil has been struggling to be a regular top 30 finisher the last few years. And like Kade and Kaos his skills may be more valuable producing content rather than racing World cups. And that sucks cos those boys really lit up the vital raw , sleeper co. and Ben cathro videos over the world cup weekends. Sad to see the gifted steezy and technical riders are being forced out of the racing side of the sport now . I wanna see some rowdy shit being done on some wild lines not just a load of Frenchies deathgripping...

Considering he's world champ you'd think he'd be on the muc off team, but then again someone said Dan atherton could win a World Cup this year so any thing is possible

Phil Atwill and the Propain Positive team appear to have parted ways with Propain. Instagram is now labeled "Positive Crew". They're either up for grabs or stepping back from UCI level racing. Hopefully somebody gives them the steam for more World Cup racing, Phil has some of the most unique bike handling skills around.

SH: "...It’s actually been super disappointing that many long-time sponsors that I have stayed loyal to throughout my career can’t even make an effort to reply to emails or messages." Damn, choosing to not pick up the phone/email when SH calls is a choice for sure. He's not on top of the game anymore but at least pitch him some gear ffs.
