Clayborn/HRPDesigns/Fastenal Factory Team Year in Review

It has been a long season on the National BMX circuit and it’s time to catch everyone up with how the Factory Squad has done this year.
First and foremost, the team would like to give a heartfelt “Thank You for your support” to the Team’s Sponsors this year Richard @ Clayborn, Stuart @ HRPdesigns, Chris @ FASTENAL, Ray @ Fly Racing, Gus @ Profile Racing and Natarsha @ Answer BMX. The opportunities the team was able to offer, to these amazing racers, would not have been possible without you.
In 2013 the Team represented at 20 National weekends throughout the US including, Tulsa, OK; Louisville, KY (Twice); Phoenix, AZ; Tampa, FL; Dallas, TX; Atlanta, GA; West Monroe, LA; Charlotte, NC; Albuquerque, NM; Nashville, TN; Severn, MD; Pittsburgh, PA; Las Vegas, NV; East Moline, IL; Kingston, NY; and Toledo, OH Clemmons, NC for the Redline Cup East Coast Championships, Orlando, FL for the Disney Cup and finished the year off back in Tulsa, OK for The Presidents Cup/Race of Champions and the Grand Nationals, which for the second year in a row set the record for the largest BMX race ever held.
The 12 rider squad has been featured in 105 main events and earned 38 podium finishes, 11 wins, 14 – 2nd places, and 13 – 3rd places. Highlighted by Chris Kennedy’s “Perfect” weekend in East Moline, IL, 4 classes entered and 4 wins for the weekend; Logan Hair’s near perfect weekend in West Monroe, LA, winning 3 out of 4 events; who could forget Lola Petillo standing on the 3rd Place Podium at the USA Cycling Amateur National Championship in Nashville, TN and finally Bryce Yeager’s battle for 3rd place at the Nashville National in, quite possibly the hardest class in BMX, 16 expert.
This was the first year of Clayborn and HRPdesigns combining forces for a Factory effort and we look for bigger and better things in 2014 as this team continues to evolve.
