January 4, 20197 yr It's been this way for a long time now.... Taddy and Grimbo left Trials longer ago than you think, to take up Hard Enduro.

Im pretty sure its not an easy decision at all, if it was just about money lots more wouldnt even bother with trials, but im sure the FIM know best and what small changes that Sport 7 made had certainly helped some of the also rans or guys on there way up keep going.

January 5, 20197 yr I totally understand that. It seem like Gas Gas was a good fit, as they covered both disciplines. Tough when you are second and third in WTC, but can't make a living. So many young women riders coming up through the ranks, that I guess GG thinks Sandra has peaked, and thinking younger rider. Very hard to beat Emma when she is so singularly focused on trials and you can't be. After Sandra beat her for the Super Enduro Championship in '16, Emma dropped the Hard Enduro side of riding. I'm sure that she's well paid by Sherco ..... I do hope Sandra will still ride the SSDT!
