Hmmmm that's super weird.. I watched both their stories multiple times and can't figure out what's going on. The bike he's on has red handlebars and black fork lowers. The fork also appears to have black stancions, although it's hard to tell.
His trainer lives there and also runs the Norco DH team. Seems likely that he traveled without his bike and just borrowed one so he could go on the group ride.

Lee is correct, Richie was just borrowing gear from his trainer.
It might be just XC related, but Mathieu van der Poel is going to be sponsored by Canyon next year.
He is running rings around his competitors in the Elite class of the Cyclocross World Cup this season (he's just 22) and showed big promise last year, challenging Nino Schurter at the Albstadt World Cup XCO.
It'd be really exciting if Fabien Barel was able to teach him a thing or two, so he can give Nino a run for his money next year.

That is very interesting.
His CX team is sponsored by Stevens, a German bike brand, and he rode one of their MTB bikes at the WC races last year. I wonder if Canyon are going sponsor his CX team for 2018/19, or if this is just a MTB contract?

No idea. Supposedly he also is selling off his old Stevens bikes. I heard from a belgian guy, an ex-racer, so it must be true :D

Came across a rumour (from back in September) that MvdP's CX team were switching to Canyon from 1st January on a 3 year deal. Which would then include Canyon MTBs for when he races.

This has to be a good thing right? Getting a non-mtb brand sponsor has to be good in that it may allow mtb brands to allocate the same money in other areas?

Zinc is no longer the YT distributor for the USA.
Below is the official press release from YT announcing the change. In it, they say Cam Zink will remain with YT Industries as an athlete and continue to contribute to the business as part of the YT family.

YT USA – Change of Business Structure
We are pleased to announce a structural change in the distribution strategy of YT in the USA. Instead of going through a service and distribution partner, our subsidiary YT Industries USA Inc. will be running the US business as of the 1st Dec, 2017.
This means we can now fully implement our European direct sales strategy in the USA, offering several advantages for US customers, such as more attractive pricing, improved service and increased availability of bikes.
The new Head Office of YT Industries USA Inc. is based in San Clemente, California.
We would like to take the opportunity to thank Cam Zink for his support in running a service and distribution center in Reno for us over the last 3 years. Cam will remain with YT Industries as an athlete and continue to contribute to the business as part of the YT family.
We are looking forward to delivering even more #GoodTimes to the USA.
About YT Industries
In 2008, CEO Markus Flossmann founded YT with the aim of building competition-ready, affordable dirt jump and slopestyle mountain bikes for talented young riders. After nine years, the product range includes high-end downhill, enduro, and trail bikes, which are regularly awarded with prestigious prizes. The secret of success: high quality products, fair prices, the direct selling method which eliminates the profit margins of middlemen, an unmatched reputation and last but not least, a team of world-class riders like Cam Zink, Andreu Lacondeguy, Aaron Gwin and Brett Tippie who are all part of the YT family.

I take offence in YT not including Neko as a part of their "world-class" riders!!!

But to where? GT? Devinci? Commencal-USA? Huffy?
In 15 years of mountain biking (mostly in the Northeast), I can count on one hands how many times I've seen KHS bikes in the wild.
