We were sat in the office the other day (well some of us were sat down, but I’ve turned my desk into a standy uppy desk…it’s the way forward you know), anyway we were wondering what Shaun Palmer was doing these days. The phone then rang and on the other end was Mike Redding from Troy Lee. He was sat (not sure if he has a standy uppy desk yet?)in his Californian office with none other than Shaun Palmer.

Big Mike (Dirt editor) was freaked out when he actually got to chat to Palmer on the phone. You know what it’s like when you get to meet or talk to your childhood idols. (I was the same when I met the Crankies)

So the Palmer news is that he’s still big into snowboards and will be racing some Boarder Cross events.

He’ll also be racing the Troy Lee Day In The Dirt Event. Word on the street is that he’ll be teaming up with Sam Hill in the motocross race.

Mike Redding and Shaun Palmer giving a little wave.

Palmers new lid and boards.
