rock Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Besides the tribal tattoo's on the shoulders the kit looks quite sharp. Nice one Spur!
raptor-22 Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Will the quality of their burgers now match the quality of their riders???? CleatsnCleavage, Paw and Jaco-fiets 3
Milkman Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Fantastic that Spur is supporting mountain biking in South Africa so much . The spur school series is a real winner ! New2tri, Dominik, nonky and 1 other 4
Odinson Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Well done Spur! It would've been a travesty if these riders were left teamless.  I'm wondering what impact the Epic would have on Reid's fitness for Rio, if he goes. Coolharvey famously stated that he believes his effort at the Epic in 2013/4 (can't remember which) negatively impacted his performance in that year's XCO series.
BrandonF_ Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Will the quality of their burgers now match the quality of their riders????...probably not, there's too much at Steak Danger Dassie, ChUkKy, AdamA and 6 others 9
Suidwes Boytjie Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 I was actually wondering the other day about Team RECM... Nico is teaming up with Gawie Combrinck, Cherise is pregnant and now Arianne and James is gone as well...Where is Erik going?
Rudi Pollard Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 (edited) TEAM RECM announced quite a while back that they will not be continuing with the sponsorship past 2015. From what I can gather on Erik's website he is riding for Topeak Ergon next year... Edited December 15, 2015 by lapa
Skubarra Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Interesting that Erik is not part of this, wonder what the behind the scenes politics are?Â
Rudi Pollard Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Interesting that Erik is not part of this, wonder what the behind the scenes politics are? Saw on another thread that Erik and Arianne is not married anymore so that would explain quite a lot... Skubarra, Dominik and nonky 3
Meezo Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Saw on another thread that Erik and Arianne is not married anymore so that would explain quite a lot...whaaaaaaaaaaaaat?
Skubarra Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 Saw on another thread that Erik and Arianne is not married anymore so that would explain quite a lot... Heard some rumours about behind the scenes stuff going wrong at team RECM so not a big surprise, but still sad to hear!
georgemc Posted December 15, 2015 Posted December 15, 2015 The fact that someone of Ariane's quality almost didn't have a sponsor is crazy. Well done to Spur for stepping up! Milkman 1
