Chloe Dygert to Canyon-Sram for 2021

And possibly connected, rumours that PFP is off that team to join Absolute-Absalon; who are rumoured to be losing World Champion Sarrou to Specialized. (from Pinkbike).

Didn't she transfer to Absalon a few years ago?

Something wonderfully french about that...

To be honest I think she, like most MTBers, kind of manages herself. Puts an end to any cameo appearances on the road tho.

Some pretty good cameo appearances inc world road champion plus mtb & CX champion they following season (I think)

How many of them are likely to win one in the next 2 years Thomas and Carapaz?

They're building the support squad ready for Pogacar.

Watched an interview with her recently on youtube, some English chap visited her, interviewed her, went out for a ride etc - she came across as a really decent, likeable down to earth person.

Jumbo V had between 4 and 6 riding the Dauphine, depending on where you set the bar.

So SRAM stand for diversity and inclusivity but they are not diverse or inclusive enough to accommodate Chloe Dygert's views on Mermaids and Transguys. So diverse and inclusive so long as you drink the corporate groupthink koolaid?

And, even more Orwellian, they then digitally erase Dygert's non corporate views from the past.

Well it is their team and their rules and I guess they don't need a Twitter storm in these difficult times, that's understandable but maybe they shouldn't have hired Dygert if she doesn't fit their ethos?

Heard they were after Aru. I wonder iif they'd have Cav back? He seemed to like Qhubeka, if not Doug Ryder...

He hasn't been complementary about the team since he left.
