SCOTT Sports has added Andrew Neethling to its family of sponsored riders. In a new MTB ambassador role, Neethling will travel the world to spread the SCOTT MTB Message. In a release, SCOTT noted, ‘After years of success on the Downhill World Cup Circuit, renowned video segments and phenomenal MTB ambassadorship, we felt that Andrew was the perfect fit for our MTB Ambassador role.’
Looking to continue his career beyond downhill racing, Andrew Neethling will transition into a brand ambassador role, traveling the world on his trail and DH bikes to meet new people, create stories and ultimately to push mountain biking.
“I am beyond excited and motivated to join SCOTT Sports.” Neethling said. “It is obviously a big decision to move away from full time racing and transition into a new role. I however feel very good and confident about it with the backing of SCOTT. My goal is to promote cycling and hopefully get more people into riding and enjoying the sport that has given me so much.”
He continued, “SCOTT bikes have always impressed me with their technology, looks and market leading development. I know there are passionate people behind the company and that is key moving forward. I want to get out there and as cliché as it sounds… show people how enjoyable riding can be.”
