martelpypie Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 According to this Specialized website he will be riding this bike in 2009. I know this is old news, but that bike!!! http://specializedriders.com/blog/1/post/show/1617Specialized Factory Racing adds Firepower posted by id* at 05:41 PM on October 01, 2008 Specializedis proud to announce the addition of two of mountain bike racing?s mostprominent riders to its factory racing program, Burry Stander and ToddWells. The riders join one of the longest-running and most successfulracing teams in the sport?s history, with a roster that includesreigning UCI cross-country world champion, Christoph Sauser, andNorway?s Lene Byberg, with leadership from the legendary Ned Overend.

Burry and Christoph racedas teammates in the 2008 Cape Epic, and at only 21, he has alreadypushed the world champ to improve. We had to have him!?
intern Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 Atleast he's got a place for his bottle now. That's why I prefer the 2008 Epic....space in the main triangle for 2 bottles....awww that's gonna change...
Larry King Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Maybe he's going to ride with a camel back?
Serendipity Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 I think Burry raced a few times on the GT Full Sus. I somehow can't imagine that Burry pushed Sauser in the Epic. It looked like Sauser pulled Burry...
SwissVan Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 I think Burry raced a few times on the GT Full Sus. I somehow can't imagine that Burry pushed Sauser in the Epic. It looked like Sauser pulled Burry... I dont think they (Specialized) are refering to the Epic... more likely the 2008 XC World cup season. Man i wish people would stop posting pictures of the 2009 S works droool......
SwissVan Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Het daardie fiets n serail nommer op? Weet nie, maar hy het seker n serial nommer
Serendipity Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 I wish Burry would update his website. The last update is two monts ago.
Speed Devil Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 I am also lost with the last sentence??? It is figuratively speaking. Burry was so fit and kept up with Sauzer that he became bit of a threat to Sauzer, so Sauzer had to improve on his fitness and performance....Hence, "he pushed Sauzer to improve...."
Speed Devil Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Nice bike' date=' I think Speed Devil is right[/quote'] These Dutchmen that don't understand English
Tumbleweed Posted October 17, 2008 Posted October 17, 2008 Nice bike' date=' I think Speed Devil is right[/quote'] ? These Dutchmen that don't understand English who you calling a dutchman, puke devil?
Serendipity Posted October 18, 2008 Posted October 18, 2008 Slightly off topic but did any of you see the cartoon in die Burger yesterday about Puke Watson and Butana Kompela. I nearly wet myself.
