t2021 Silly Season v1 7

Our sport's annual version of musical chairs is happening. The music is playing, and the riders are slowly circling the remaining seats...

Who's down for a first round of '21 Silly Season? This year has featured more moves, and a compressed time schedule (due to the late end to the National season), so things are definitely happening at a different pace from normal. Some teams are lamenting delayed budgets, and bikes that are hard to find. As always, if you've got info to add, a legit team logo, or anything to help fill in the blanks, feel free to fire off an email to GuyB.

Note: Updated with new AMA numbers, and for guys who use numbers in their IG handle, we will update rider social links as they change to reflect their current numbers. Oh, and feel free to follow us on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram.

Zach's 450 outdoor title was a high point (as was the 1-2-3 sweep at the final 450 Supercross race), but we'd love to be able to wave the magic anti-injury wand over the rest of the lineup.
