Watch: GT Factory Racing Says Goodbye to a Few Friends

GT Bicycles announces a big change to their race team for 2018.

It’s that time of year when we see riders shuffling around to different teams. With this video, GT is one of the first to announce a big shakeup. Brook MacDonald, Anneke Beerten, Sam Dale, Jackson Frew, and Ely Woody, won’t be racing for the brand in 2018. Based on this announcement, it sounds like Wyn Masters, Rachel Strait, and Martin Maes will remain on the team for next season.

From GT:

“2016 and 2017 are two years that will be added to the legendary logbook of ‘Team GT’.

 

GT Factory Racing 1.0 represented what we all like most; racing at the highest level in the most beautiful locations around the globe with big smiles on our faces. The team built a relationship that will last a lifetime. And there are too many good stories to wrap up in a few words!

 

I truly wish Sambo, Anneke, Brook, Jackson, and Ely a hell of a ride with their next adventures. Thank you all for being part of our crew and for all of the good times. You guys know where to find the good beer and you know there will always be a cold one waiting for you!

 

Cheers,

 

Mark and the entire crew at GT Bicycles.”
