Steve Peat and Josh Bryceland have just taken possession of their new SRAM/RockShox equipped Santa Cruz Carbon V-10’s with carbon Enve wheels complete with lots of slick team issue products. Next week they will be racing at the second Halo BDS round in Molfre, UK aboard their new steeds, then they will promptly jump on a plane to Pietermaritzburg, South Africa where they will be caught up in a whirlwind of activities leading up to the World Cup season opener.
They spent a day building up the new bikes and Steve remarks on the new features of the bike:
"I get excited at this time every year! The feeling of surprise as to what the guys in the art department have come up with for our new graphics is great and 2011 is no exception!!! The guys have done a killer job yet again. Good old Dougie "Hatrick” Hatfield stuck most of the bike together and myself and Josh had a bit of fun putting the last bits on to see the whole bike. It then needed to be sent of to Ricky Bobby for a final race prep tune and to tighten all the bolts I had missed....ha,ha. She will be back with me soon for her maiden voyage....can’t wait as the whole thing looks awesome."
Once the Syndicate lands in South Africa they will head to Pietermaritzburg for a couple of days of photo shoots with Gary “Flipper” Perkin for Santa Cruz, then the True Collection activities start with other True Athletes Cedric Gracia, and extreme mountain skier and base jumper JT Holmes in tow. Greg is eager to see his “Syndicate Family” again and says, “I’m looking forward to being a part of the Syndicate again, and the family reunion is here at my home. There is a lot going on with the True Collection and one of the things I'm really looking forward to is meeting up with JT Holmes to do a parachute drop into the World Cup! The GM/True Athlete fan club has taken some work but is looking very good....exciting times!”
