To be fair, Intense seemed it was going to pull out of the WC racing circuit after Gwin to focus on US racing, and it seems Breeden created the opportunity to continue. Given the pull out of the European market, it seems this is the right approach and strategy for them. I hope they make it through and with nice releases like the new Spider and coming updated Tazer, perhaps they will make it back to the WC circuit in the future.

I was wondering how a fish based drink company was possibly worth 6 billion USD - turns out 800M ISK is 6 million USD.

vital fantasy brought to you by draft kings.

Neko/Frameworks have Loctite, by all accounts a pretty significant "non bike" sponsor.

It seems people are quite fast to forget about "outside" sponsors, AON is sponsored by campervan company, Dorval AM is an investment fund, never actually heard how they even got into DH? And its even funnier on the road side, Jumbo Visma was a partnership between a grocery store chain and an IT company and Red Bull - Bora - Hansgrohe is probably the best, we all know RB, but the second one is making kitchen appliances and the last one plumbing equipment.

Just to cleat things up, that was when Gary still owned the company. Clif is owned by Mondelez now… All Clif sponsorship is dead, they might have kept an influencer or two. Gary’s still sponsoring a domestic crit team via the family winery though, because he’s a true hero of cycling.

Sam Hill back on Nukeproof! 😁☢️

Wasn’t Minnaar with Cliff Bar, and also Mouse phone covers, and a ZA brewing company….

There is going to be some unexpected news around Nukeproof racing very soon...

didnt even realize Vali was with Mini. maybe not a good thing lol What was up with the Reece and Lotus thing? Now THAT was random. Only a one year thing right? But he had Volvo when he got his wins? SO, so random lol I seem to be missing what trajectory gets you from volvo to lotus to... campervans

Vali is getting that MINI money, Finn is sponsored by Swatch. Those are the only 2 non industry sponsors that come to mind straight away, but have no idea what they pay.

Could say the same about Redbull and all their sponsoring

Pretty much doomed to break a bunch of shit now.

Guess he is definitely staying on Norco

No eyebrows, can’t see the the shoes, too far away to see if there are bar-ends on the bike, but does the speed tuck match? 😂

I’m gonna stick to eating salmon and not drinking it.

Trek Factory is now Trek Unbroken https://racing.trekbikes.com/stories/tfr-cross-country/trek-unbroken-xc… https://racing.trekbikes.com/stories/tfr-cross-country/what-is-unbroken…

Many pages ago I had mentioned Finn’s MSA post race interview with WB where he was very clear that he was staying with Specialized next year. He was talking about how excited he was to be healthy going into the offseason and he and the team could carry better momentum into 2026 with the bike and its setup.

Does Finn riding a Specialized with suspension telemetry in mid-December put an end to any speculation of him making a team move or is the party still rocking till 12/31?
