Heather Wurtele on a Roo? Nope. Just a Tweet foul but What Next for the W’s?
Quote | Reply
Apologies if I’m late on this but I was surprised to see Heather on a Quintana Roo as she took a great win at 70.3 Campeche today. She and Trevor are still listed as athletes on the Cervelo website. Congrats to her on the win! Just curious if anyone knows what’s up....

Saw this pic on Twitter:



Cheers,

I remember that but thought the W’s made it through, and since they’re still listed on the website......just made me curious.

When I heard that rumor, I immediately though of TeamWurtele, the quintessential Canadians as test of knowing if the rumor was true.

Just saw Paulo call that out on Ironman’s tweet but dumb me for biting on it. My apologies but glad everything’s right in the world!



Prolly should delete this thread to dispel the rumors if I’m smart enough to figure out how to....

Well, this has been confusing! Ironman tweeted the wrong pic but it turns out the gist of this topic is still valid. I wish the Wurtele’s the best. Great reps of our sport f’sure.

The interesting thing here is that the Wurtele’s don’t list Cervelo as a sponsor, nor do they new kits they just posted on Instagram.

The Cervelo site also lists Tyler Butterfield who isn’t a pro for them anymore, but still can be seen riding their bikes.

At the end of the day updating the sponsorship webpage is pretty low on the totem poll. Lots of companies leave that up sometimes for years after the contract is done. I am sure H & W could complain but it really isn't doing them any harm.

cutting athletes / $$.....a few years after spending god knows how much money on developing a bike that costs $20,000CAN to purchase ...... no wonder times are tight....I have only seen pros on it. I did not see one AG rider at ITU LC Worlds or Whistler IM last year on the new spaceship.

I was hoping for trickledown cheaper options but apparently its optioning UP with Lambraghini.

This said, the best economical bike on market is P2 IMO.

Up until a year ago, I still worked at an agency that I quit 10 years prior according to their site. So yeah, updating a site isn’t always job 1.

The agency was still doing quite well at the time too.

Heather confirmed post race on twitter that "we actually don't have a contract from Cervélo this year, which is why they are not on my kit."

They def still both rode the P5X at Cempeche and have tons of Instagram pictures with them on S3s?

The P5X is one of the fastest bikes out there - no reason to give them up if they don't have another deal.

My LBS told me he heard the same rumor of a P3X. That's twice I hear about it. Who knows...

Agree with you on all points, but only want to advise there were a couple of Age Groupers on the P5X at IM Canada at least in the 70.3. I passed one on the climb back to Whistler (front door brag ;>) ).
Ok back your thread.

So long as Cervelo marketing dont take to twitter claiming #simplyfaster congrats to their race results with a photo of them on their bikes like they did with Jen Annett after IMAZ last year. Its #simplyunprofessional

Seems even better for Cervelo that H&T chose to ride the bike even when they are not sponsored.
