This is like one of Steveb's 'guess what brand we're going to be stocking next' games.

Is there even "just Reid racing" next year. I thaught the rumours where that him and Dan Stanbridge where joining forces under "Dirt world racing" ??

If it's not John Dory's or the Vinyard off licence I'm gonna be disappointed. But I have a fair idea now.

Paddy and i were talking to Ben and Glyn at Bigwood on Saturday, he didn't want to say too much and rightly so, it would be very akward for him if info came out ahead of an official press release.
We all love the guessing game but when it's so close to home who really wants to ruin the announcement for Ben, lets just wait and see

I think I have an idea. Heard a few rumours a while back but it was only rumours.

I want to but I've never guessed before. Is there a form to fill in?

MrNuts

Will it make him faster or just a new name on his shirt????

As Marty said , we were talking to him on saturday and he's close but not letting the cat out of the bag on bikes just yet but he did tell us about the team and the running of it....
Good luck to Ben next season and he seems very happy too !
Also Glyn and Ben were flying on short travel AM bikes ( private joke to a few that know lol )

no forms it's freestyle guessing!

not sure if it's be a good move or not but from what I heard today he'll have better backup than he's had for a few years

think there's going to be a press release either this week or next

Does this mystery sponsor end in a vowel e.g. Tonka?

Ho Ho, that'll not pls Lindsay, single crown DH'ers

I'm sure the wee man will tell on his site or through the press in his own time so lets just wait & see what prevails.

your a bit sad well!! considering the guy is local and the only one likely, if given enough real support and help, to one day bring a very proud moment to this country for the sport.....something that would almost certainly not happen again for a very long time!!!!!

I wasn't too fussed before this thread as long as he got the money to keep racing but now I want to know.

MrNuts

Says the man with a cheating germans name as his user name;)

Just not interested thats all, another sticker on his bike/helmet, what difference does a sponser make, unless he joins a bigger team or gets a new bike supplier, now that would be news!

simon

would that not class as a new sponsor?

schumacher94
January 07-2010, 01:55 PM
yeah and ayrton senna was less of a cheat wasnt he?? racing is racing plus hill is the worst example of a world champion ever in history!

he clearly will have a new bike supplier as ironhorse are buggered and i think riding for Dirt is big enough dont you?!

MrNuts
January 07-2010, 01:57 PM
So someone who lets you ride their bike is a sponsor and someone who gives you monet to wear stickers is a sponsor???

So Jenson Button has a new sponsor?
Michael Schumacher has a new sponsor?

Confused.

Why isn't this thread, 'guess Ben Reids new bike'?????

MrNuts
January 07-2010, 01:58 PM
Dirtmag not big enough then???

Depends what ur doing, if your trying to reach a high shelf then no, you'll need a step ladder:D

Surely this is more recent news than that. Wasn't that announced in principle in the magazine at least a month or two ago?

it is possible to be given a bike to ride without being on a works team, hense sponsored, companies often have one works team, then sponsor other well known or up and coming riders equipment to get their name out there and in order to nurture and acess new talent for prospective spots on their works team in the future. just reid was bens team, he was sponsored the bikes and equipment ;)

hope it works out well for him and his lot they've worked hard to get where they are now

Is it not name not written on the bike:p
