Time to get down to Cornwall…..most things seem to wash up there in the end, although these need to make it past the Cape of Good Hope or Cape Horn…

Bell Sports and Trek Bicycle are among the firms suing shipping companies over containers lost or damaged due to storms in the North Pacific in early 2021.

The Maersk Essen 051, a 366-meter ship, lost more than 700 containers when it encountered heavy seas off Mexico on Jan. 16, 2021. The vessel was en route from Xiamen, China, to Los Angeles. Trek is among more than 30 companies suing Maersk, the ship's operator, and other related parties for lost or damaged cargo on the Essen.

Hmm….the XC machines of next year look rather tasty….the young Rachel Atherton managed to go down hill rather fast with Trek….but I do know what you mean…..

If you start selling cheap Treks in the >98 section we will know...

So we can expect the market to be flooded (pun intended) woth treks next year.

No point taking Maersk to court, but the shippers insurance (who isn't Maersk) should cover it without all the fuss. 700 containers is small fry when we drop a couple a thousand and set fire to another couple of thousand a year. You should see how many get dropped in yard.

..indeed novocaine it's a drop in the ocean....
