Felix has really stepped up his racing game of late, and I think it’s time I looked at trying to get him a bit more support than I can offer (or afford).
He raced Shimano Bike Buller Festival on the weekend, and convincingly won the DH, Enduro, SuperD and Gravity God titles. Racing u15’s, he’s 13, with another year in that class.
He’s really only ever ridden cheaper SH bikes or my hand me downs. He raced all events on the weekend on his 155mm Transition suppressor (technically a 26, but set up 27.5).
People regularly ask me if he’s getting any sponsorship. He isn’t, and I have no idea about how to look into this. Not talking factory rides, just some support with his gear and parts.
Anyone got any experience or tips on how to go about looking into this?
Or do you just wait for a guy in a suit with a briefcase full of money to tap you on the shoulder?
