2013 World Cup Rumour Mill with @Team Rumours Part 4
The 2012 World cup race season is over and the silly season has begun! The master of conjecture and speculation, Mr @teamrumours, has fired up his Twitter account and has begun teasing us with his detailed insider knowledge and artistic ability with crayons. Here’s the latest instalment…
What’s Wyn Masters doing riding that bull? This is starting to remind me of Catchphrase…say what you see!
Here’s the recipe…but what’s cooking?
Well part of this one is pretty simple, but can you name the 5th rider? Or is one of them expecting a kid… (Thought I’d throw that one out there to get the rumour mill going full tilt)
Who’s the rider…or should I say company that won’t back down?
This one has to be Sam Dale, but where’s he off to? And as far as we know it’s not Dirt.
Some sort of aggressive dog looking to visit Trek or Specialized?
Internet shopping?
MTBCut, Enduro, Germany?
Black Beauty and the Beast. Some sort of white horse with a New Zealand fern ridden by some hairy shaggy bloke…what do you reckon?
Can you name all of them?
Rachel is prego, thought everyone knew this already.?
“Some sort of aggressive dog looking to visit Trek or Specialized?”
Looks like a British Bull Dog, which has gotta be @brendog_1 (Brendan Faircloug)
Brook MacDonald as the Bulldog going to Trek or Spesh, Taylor Vernon on GT.
James Pritchard for GT anyone seen him he’s a beast
Taylor Vernon.
I think young belgian Martin Maes will be the new racer with the Athertons. He is only 15 years old but already did the best scratch time at the Belgium DH championship and ended 5th at the Enduro of nations in Sauze d’Oulx.
He wants to race both enduro and DH.
iccle tay tay on athertron racing
Gareth Brewin is the 5th atherton….

Dudes of Hazzard on Canyon bikes next year
Baltic Ben Reid is pretty short and with him and Rach being an item I could see him coming on board.
It might be Harry Barrett! but he’s taller than Slugger
the Athertons are summer training in NZ with “mini me “
taylor vernon with the athertons
Hill is gonna go to Nukeproof
Prepaid credit card. Maybe YT are putting a team in this year?!!
When I ordered mine i had to use a credit card.
:-S
Prepaid credit card – could be someone coming onto the CRC team with their own sponsors. Maybe Tahnee Seagrave riding her favoured Intense Bikes?
I would say GT Atherton team expanding, just that doesn’t look like a Vito Sport rear end. Also, a little JT Racing logo in the clouds???

Wyn Masters doing commentary with Warner? Oh god please yes.
James Pritchard for GT apparently he’s Marc sluggers prodigy.
Martin maes signing with gt! Here’s a Belgium article about it:

James Pritchard has already been seen testing this years GT downhill bike with the athertons and slugger apparently he will be riding enduro cross country and downhill this year
Ronnie Corbett , joins Atherton racing !
Foxhead?
So the teams have all agreed to publish their own rumours in order to keep people interested in UCI WC over the break. How about UCI organize a summer series down in Oz and NZ so the teams can race nearly all year! Sick of waiting for next season yo!!
When the break is several times longer than the season, they have to try something I should think.
Wyn doing some clips of crazy horses for red bull next season!
I’m guessing that Wyn TV is going to the Red Bull Media house and Cam Cole will star in the new series.
i wonder if the german company Bulls are going to make DH bikes now too like Canyon and Cube? maybe thats it?
^^^ click this guy is onto it. Wyn is on bull bikes for 2013
Confirmed: Martin Maes on GT racing both DH and Enduro, he’s only 15!!! Great to see companies starting enduro teams!
I think slugger just confirmed this rumor via twitter: “Can’t wait to go out riding with my new team mates Martin Maes @TaylorVernon67 @gee_atherton @Dan_Atherton should be mega 2013 “
