Ali C Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 Ok, some people may have noticed I havn't actually ridden an Ashton frame for a while. this was due to me breaking my first proto and the 2nd batch taking a long time to get here.I am now currently ranked 14 in the world (UCI) and I have had offers from some other companies. I feel Its time to move on from Ashton Bikes and persue other goals.I want to take this time to Thank Martyn Ashton for his support during the last few years, its always been a dream of mine to ride for Martyn and follow in the steps of Eddie Tongue, Akkers and Holroyd, they have been my idols from the start and I feel privaliged that Martyn Wanted me on his team. I enjoyed myself on the team and riding the justice, I hope my comp results and personality helped in Martyns frame sales andcompany image.I wish Martyn all the best with his riding and Ashton Bikes, I am sure we'll see some good products out in the future.

Walleee Posted December 18, 2007 Report Share Posted December 18, 2007 I had started to wonder what was going on. Allways thought you were THE man to ride for Ashton as your style lends it's self to what he's all about, fluidity, flow, etc..... so i'm a little disappionted but im sure things will only get better for you.
