Mark Burnett has parted ways with the Sunday Bikes team…
Here’s some surprising news we did NOT see coming! Mark Burnett is no longer riding for Sunday Bikes! It sounds like Mark had a new opportunity come up that he decided to pursue, but ended things on a positive note with Sunday. Above is a quick farewell video Sunday put together and below you can find a few words from Sunday’s Team Manager, Walter Pieringer, and some words from Mark about the news!

“Sad news, Mark Burnett is moving on to new opportunities. Mark is one of the most talented and determined riders I’ve met, and it’s been a treat seeing him come into his own over the past five years and establish himself as a true force in modern-day BMX. Mark’s been a big part of Sunday for a long time, and we’re bummed to lose him but excited everyone will still get to watch him be just so ridiculously dialed over at his new spot, which he’ll be telling you about soon. Everybody at Sunday wishes Mark nothing but the best.” – Walter Pieringer, Sunday TM

“This hasn’t been an easy decision, but ultimately it was a move I have decided to make. As of today I will no longer be riding for @sundaybikes. This is absolutely not a move of hate, but a move of love. I want to personally thank @thejakeseeley and @walterpieringer as well as everybody else I have shared this experience with. It is the reason why I am who I am, why I’ve seen the things I’ve seen, and why I’ve been able to accomplish the things I have. With that said however, I couldn’t be more excited for the future. Every year is the best year of my life…” – Mark Burnett

Any guesses where you think Mark is going? I personally, 100% guessing right now, could see him rolling over to Subrosa since he’s already a part of The Shadow Conspiracy and it seems like they’ve been making some changes to their Pro team as of late, like the addition of Trey Jones, so that’s a possibility. I guess we will just have to wait and see what happens!
