I wonder if he'll have a similar deal to Brendan at Scott . Attached to the team but still able to bring along his own personal sponsors. I'd love to know who instigated this . If GM is still serious about getting top results , and I have no doubt he's capable of it , then Norco seems a less than obvious move . Specialized gravity or trek maybe , but I can't see Norco having the resources of those top teams .

Mille's results weren't great last year, especially compared to the crop of juniors moving up to elite this year. Going to be nail biting for lots of the women now with only 10 spots in finals.

Sven Garcia an acronym of Craig evans, along with one of his latest posts and someone else mentioning seeing him on a prototype slacker, basically confirms Craig on airdrop

Any chance of making a separate Palmer fanboy moto stream? We all get how uninfluenced you guys are but I came here for this season's racing rumors and not to hear you live in the past.

Yep. And if you look at their other signings like Brad Simms, Fabio and the Japanese trials riders, it’s clear that their strategy is to expand the customer base beyond traditional markets, not to fight over the existing market. Whether that strategy will pay off or not, I don’t know, but it’s clearly the direction they’ve chosen to go.

This is the correct take in my opinion. Pilgrim is going to sell bikes for Canyon and at the same time he might be able to get back into competition on bikes built for the riding he wants to do. I don't know why he went with Haibike, they probably offered a sweet deal. But in the ensuing years the power of social media and his channel are clear, so Canyon is forking out the money to bring him on to help sell their products to youth a new riders. It's a great partnership for both of them.
