Thomas Lapeyrie winning the marketing this year.
--------------------------

Following the announcement by Thomas Lapeyrie of his premature ousting from the pro enduro race circuit, the large number of reactions and support gave birth to the idea of Rider.404.

Born from a “system error”, this rider exists solely thanks to the immense solidarity from the passionate enduro community. The first that come forward with support were the pro riders, they themselves often faced with the offseason rider's market where sometimes injustice reigns. That’s why a large number of them responded positively to this project: giving a little bit of their time, offering their legendary jerseys, a day of riding, etc...
Athletes support the people who support Rider.404 giving him the opportunity to continue to be an athlete on the pro racing circuit.

Thank you to all the pro riders without whom this project would not have been possible:

Adrien Dailly, Amaury Pierron, Andréane Lanthier Nadeau, Anita Gehrig, Caro Gehrig, Cécile Ravanel, Christian Tailor, Damien Oton, Déborah Motsch, Dimitri Tordo, Elliott Heap, Fabien Barel, François Bailly-Maitre, Greg Callaghan, Ines Thomas, Iago Garay, Isabeau Courdurier, Jerome Clementz, Jesse Melamed, Josh Lewis, Kelan Grant, Kilian Bron, Loic Bruni, Loris Vergier, Ludo May, Martin Maes, Maxime Chapuis, Miranda Miller, Morgane Charre, Morgane Jonnier, Myriam nicole, Nicolas Vouilloz, Noga Korem, Pedro Burns, Remy Absalon, Sam Hill ,Titouan Perrin-Ganier, Yoann Barelli, Zakarias Johansen.


So if you too want to support the rider.404, discover the crowfounding below:

This kinda makes sense, would buy a 29er Remedy that is essentially the old Slash
Current Fuel EX is a Remedy 29 with 10mm less travel out back and more current geometry...

Current Fuel EX is 140/130. Bike is a trail bike, not an enduro rig. New Slash will probably be pushing into the space the new Slayer is forging its path with.

Who are we still waiting to show their hands for 2020?

Sucks to be a team that hasn't posted an announcement yet. The UCI list snuffs heaps of the excitement they could have had.

yeah its a shame, you would think that canyon would know when the UCI announcement is though. they should have had something sorted for around the same time as the Seagraves.

UCI Team List shows that Nina Hoffmann's got her own team this year with another rider. Looks to be sponsored by the Stif bike shop in the UK (whose parent company seems to be the UK Santa Cruz distributer) so she'll be on a Juliana again.

Good to see some stuff confirmed on the list. Nina Hoffmann running her own program. I wonder if she wanted it that way?

They always kill the suspense. I was hoping this thread would gt me into march.

Did anyone call Moir on Canyon at some point? I feel like that was the last big surprise that was waiting along with what Nina was doing. Also seeing Lucas Cruz on Norco Factory

Also, if Jack was using those Commencals as rumor bait, well played.

Anyone know where Isabeau Courdurier landed?

How about Bruce Klein? I know he is still riding and advertising Commencal bikes but I never saw a team announcement.

The Syndicate won't hire a female racer. Kathy said so a while back. oddly and sadly.

So wierd if true not sure the deal there and a downer if true. A fast exciting racer is exactly that regardless.

If I’m not mistaken she said they’d only hire one that fit them and no one currently does. Maybe marine caribou in a few years. She’s got that syndicate swagger and seems to be getting close in terms of results

Believe Bruce is still Commencal but on a new or updated Commencal USA program

Yep, and most likely Nina didn’t like the deal they offered.
