Shoulda thrown some props and in fact a proper send off to Kathy. She gave it all for that team for a long long time. Deserves a public thank you!

[@noblewulf]

Team mom!

[@ryan456c5]

Yea that was so strange that there wasn't a send off for her or anything acknowledging her when she left. Just no explanation as to why she wasn't team manager anymore

[@ride-time]

I didn't actually realise that Kathy was no longer the team manager until I watched this vid. 😥

[@retrovertigocl]

Who doesn't love Peaty and Greg? what a lovely guys.. we also miss you Ratboy!

[@jamesherd9132]

Ratboy was at ard rock and finnished in the top 10 out of loads so he is ok

[@mikegallagher2732]

PEATY IS The HEART and SOUL of DH.... Such an AMAZING And TALENTED Dude... INFINITE RESPECT.

[@darwood68]

I'm 55 now and still have a poster with you and the whole Team GT back in 1997. Back in our day's, the good Ole day's!! You'll always be a Legend in my book!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@Bonky-wonky]

Definitely one of if not the sport’s biggest ambassador.

[@Coolcmsc]

Happy Birthday! What a fantastic cut 🎉 Really enjoyed this and saved to watch over (and over) 😊 Back in the 90’s in Sheffield, Peaty’s legendary story and his lines cut in Wharny and Greno (which he’s still involved in) motivated a generation of youngsters. And it motivated their parents too. At 66 now, I’m still shredding best I can. I ride parks with my kids still - the daughter’s over from NZ next week for a month and we’ll shred BPW, Wharny and Greno to catch up.
All this, for all of us, is inspired and maintained principally by this legend and those Brits who’ve followed in his footsteps.

[@SuperJontyB]

Our man Peaty showing the way 🤘

[@soundwarper]

Absolutely loved this. You don’t need me to tell you this, but the mix of classic Peaty footage with current riders was bob on and the raw gnarliness off at pace riding coupled with slow motion emotional moments works perfectly! 8 minutes of my life well spent! 👊😎❤️

[@MtbAddict109]

Awesome video.. the Syndicate is truly legendary!

[@danielheath8355]

Peaty with sweaty eyeballs.... Too much! Remember seeing him ride at the Malverns in the 90s. Lot of love for Peaty!

[@henri-basilhearne3480]

Peaty is so incredible that he even helped me, a US Semi-Pro, when we both had a Grade 3 shoulder separation. Was rhe wekeend i should have had my pro card at Deer Valley Nat'l that he won over Nico.
The following weekend he did his in Canada. We talkrd by email & dude just motivated me, shared things his physio had him doing rhat mine was failing at...just the greatest guy to a nobody like me. #pinnersRwinners

[@pernyberg2816]

Fantastic video and at least 40 minutes too short 😂

[@calebmccalla4715]

The syndicate is a lifestyle, not a team.

[@porroco]

Shimano what you should invest is more in customer support, my ebike need to get light switch enable, but there is no way i can get help from you.
