Looking forward to hearing his tips on using Zipties and lowering seats...
Huge fan of ST and his career with Dirt, quite an interesting contribution imo. Didn’t see that coming. It’s a shame Dirt’s website has never lived up to the promise of the brand. Wonder what will come of this on their side..
Cool.
I brought him to a halt once when marshalling a Dragon race at Myndd Du (I think) once.
True story.
Hopefully he can balance up the MBUKness a bit.
Mind you, it's still not doing much for gender equality on that channel.
I don't mind a bit of Steve now and again though so looking forward to what he brings.
Assembling quite a team there. Hopefully he'll continue to do the race interviews for GMBN next season. Be interesting to see if they get him in to do gear and bike reviews.
On the gender equality thing, I was certain we were going to see Tracey Mosely unveiled as a part time presenter. Be great to see her doing regular videos.
Will he be mumbling with his hand over his mouth, to reflect Dirts magazine style?
Tracey Mosely would be great on it.

I want him to review one of Doddy's bikes and say it's too small.
Very interesting, I don't watch much GMBN at all but it usually seems a bit basic/pitched at newbies. Presume Jonesy's arrival will add a bit more depth.
Just a bit concerned how his honest reviewing style will work with the bike sponsorship and product placement model there.

Yeah! She was excellent on the EWS coverage earlier in the year.
Was never a fan of his writing style. Seems like a top bloke though.
Can't see Tracy wanting to do it full-time, but I'd definitely watch it more if she became a regular contributor.
Are his spoken words in the wrong order aswell, or written just his?
I did say part time. It definitely needs a woman or 2 on the team.
Maybe they are holding out and waiting to see what Rachel Atherton's plans are for next year
The Insta post has been deleted. I saw it this morning and thought it was just them all mucking about, wasn't sure to take it seriously. No doubt we'll find out in the coming weeks.
Oh. It was surprising but had a kind of logic, with him putting out good video content in the past and Dirt seeming a bit under-resourced now.
Maybe he's actually the new Fox distributor instead.
Hopefully he'll counteract the one-man-entertainment-vacuum that is Doddy.
It's definitely gone a bit MBUK since Scotty left, I don't even road bike but I find myself watching GCN much more.
Would like to see Tracey Mosley or Traharn Chidley as GMBN presenters.
Edit: Or Manon Carpenter

GMBN too small?

Seems all of the comments from a myriad of professionals all took it seriously. Lots of "Congrats bro"
I hope Dirt-and what it represents- can still survive if he is jumping ship. CBA with the generic content GMBN are pumping out. "its competition time" every two minutes. "top ten ways to improve your saddle height" etc..
Cant stand Doddy.
Always looks like he has the mumps
😆Always looks like he has the mumps
Although at times GMBN and GCN can be a bit generic they've still changed the game for better in terms of cycling coverage in this country (and abroad). Steve Jones would be a positive addition if he does go there.
Blimey does GMBN generate enough cash to actually employ people?
Great if it does just I hardly ever bother watching anything
Misogyny rules the roost on GMBN
Get glowinski in there now the bikechannel has folded. Easy on the eye is a bonus.

Bedwetters and guardian readers on high alert,I implied a lady of the opposite sex is attractive.

For a start, that's just ballcocks. The simple lack of a female presenter does not misogyny make. They talked about it(lack of female presenter) the other day on one I watched as it happens, and Martyn explained that they couldn't find the right combo of someone good for the channel and someone who was available.

Besides, Misogyny is a dislike or contempt for women. Calling a woman attractive isn't misogyny, it's [s]rampant sexism[/s] a nice gesture.
He has left Dirt:
