Anybody catch this news:
Not sure what the dealio is there but I'm not a big fan of washing your dirty laundry out in public. It's my understanding he's got another deal already lined up with another bike manufacturer so he cold probably spare himself the controversy. Great racer (I remember drooling over anything C-dale built he and Missy' were riding back then), apparently still very active in the West Coast (PinkBike sources, must be true).
Yeah, sounds a bit whiny for a great racer over $25K. Suck it up and race for someone else.
This is a step up from the Kardashians, but my 2c is he should have publicly been polite about it. Even if it's a hollow but positive message like Cannondale's response.
The guy's life has been racing for the past 3 decades. Gotta be a pretty boring guy.
Tinker is about as relevant to Cannondale as Libor Karas.
Help me out, what is cannodale again?
I wanted to see what companies pay in the biking industry and F they're cheap bastards, don't see how this tops out at 105k.
maybe cannondale didn't have 25k for realz
Pretty sure if you make 25k a year, you don't have a Digital Media Assistant on staff. Maybe he had his grandkid handling his Twitter?Seems strange the post was created and then deleted. Hard to say if he really handles all of his social media - many racers do not. My own WAG is Tinker asked for a raise and Cannondale said, "hmm... no." I do think it's pretty damn amazing he's still out there racing and is actually competitive against guys who are 1/3 his age.
