Race Driven Since -85
Since 1985, racing has fueled our very existence. The Yeti / FOX FACTORY Race Program has produced multiple World, National and Regional championship titles and has been represented by some of the most talented riders to ever wear a race jersey. These achievements are a product of a fully supported, tiered team structure that fosters growth and development. Racers are able to compete and progress at multiple levels within a single program throughout their career.
With jersey’s donning names such as Tomac, Gwin, Graves, Rude, Kintner, and Giove, no other program in mountain biking is as successful as Yeti.
Yeti / FOX Factory team riders Richie Rude and Shawn Neer joined former teammate Cody Kelley to represent Team USA at the historic Trophy of Nations event in Finale Ligure, Italy. Competing against the rest of the world, the first UCI Rainbow Jersey to be offered at an enduro event was on the line.
The Yeti / Fox Factory team finished the season in top form, with Richie Rude taking 3rd place in the final race in Zermatt, Switzerland. Teammate Shawn Neer crushed the first three stages with high alpine riding that lends itself to the terrain of his home state of Colorado.
It was a race for the ages - punctuated by dust, heat, and an unrelenting course, Richie Rude powered out another win beating Sam Hill by the narrowest margin in EWS history, 0.8 seconds. Let that sink in…
Richie Rude threw down a crushing run on the Queen Stage (Top of the World) at the Whistler EWS, winning by 33 seconds and putting the field on notice that he was the man to beat
The two-day race at Les Orres, France introduced racers to eight completely new tracks and put a twist on the typical French lines. With a little less jank and a little more flow, riders were pleased with the combination of high alpine, natural trails, mixed with bike park berms while descending from above 9000-feet to the mile-high base area.
Stage by stage, Rude held off the field with strong form and unbridled speed. On the queen stage – the crux stage of every race - Rude held no mercy.
