Words on the whiteboard where our calendar used to be. This is tough. Truly can’t thank you all enough for the kind words you’ve given us, it’s means so much. This team is forever a family.
We have been fortunate to have a part in some incredible careers...one being @elitomac . Eli earned two championships during his time on our team- in 2012, 250 West Supercross championship and in 2013, the 250 AMA Pro Motocross championship. He was also the first rider in history to win his pro debut, taking the checkered at Hangtown Pro Motocross national in 2010. Although he’s been on a different manufacturer for years now, seeing him continuing to succeed at the top level of our sport is very cool- good work E!
We definitely didn’t see this announcement coming and the term, “all good things must come to an end”, just doesn’t seem fitting. After 22 years and 12 championships, we were forced to make the decision of closing down our race team. We were thrown a curveball in August by losing our title sponsor. We have worked tirelessly to try and find a replacement but given this unpredictable year, we ran out of time to get something put together.
We would like to thank our staff and riders for being as understanding as they can be in this situation. Being forced to close our team doesn’t mean we lose the family we created and no matter where our next chapters take us, our bond will not be broke.
Thank you to every team member, rider and their families who have come through our operation- we truly could not have done it without you. This sport requires a lot of sacrifices from more than just the rider and we have been lucky to have some amazing support systems behind our guys.
A huge thank you to our fans! We feel extremely blessed to have so many people stand behind our team and riders through the good and the bad. The dedication and love we have been shown through the years is second to none. Although we all are going our separate ways, please stop and say hi when you see us!
Last but not least, so many great sponsors have supported us through the years. American Honda and Factory Connection have been there from the beginning and we couldn’t have done this without them! Our hope is that you continue to support those who supported us through the years to come.
Thanks for the memories everyone. To say we will miss you all is an understatement ❤️
What a day of racing for our team! @jettson83 grabbed his first ever OA win! @jeremymartin6 went 4-1 for 2nd. @joshimoda84 got his first moto podium giving him 5th overall. @carsonmumford matched his best pro finish at 9th overall. And unfortunately, @hunterlawrence wasn’t able to finish the day because of his shoulder- GWS, Hunter! Great job this season boys 👊🏼. As for the other news, we will touch on soon ❤️
Bittersweet pulling our rig out one last time as GEICO Honda. We have partnered with GEICO for the last 13 years and together, we have built a powerhouse team that will forever live on. We are working hard to fill our title sponsor spot so we can continue making memories for years to come. For now, let’s do this boys! One more round! ❤️
