Factory47 BMX

We’ve been here before, and that sinking feeling again of making an extremely hard decision once again to close doors on Factory47 Racing breaks my heart, I feel for our young riders and it’s not lost on me that has an impact on the families involved. This 2nd generation of Factory47 Racing, formed a tight nit group of amazing families who bonded together and allowed me to run the team from a distance as my personal life became increasingly busier. The most successful era of our team if you were to go by results alone, the gains we’ve witnessed especially over the past 12 months is nothing short of amazing and I’ve been so stoked to be a small part of their journey. Any team would be lucky to have this sort of talent on their roster, and they deserve to be supported to a high standard, in which I started to feel I was falling a little short due to a busy life outside of the sport. Lee Chwieduk Koby Erich Racing INDY ERICH charley13.bmx 석아린 , it’s been my honour to have you as a part of Factory47, you have been everything our team has been about over the past 12 years, and represented us to the highest standard and I wish you the very best and of course I will still follow your racing careers with interest. I won’t say never, as I did once before, but for now we close this chapter on the racing arm of Factory47 Racing. Who knows what the future will bring, Factory47 hasn’t always a Bmx team, started as a venue name, then a production company and finally a race team. See where we land in the future…… wherever our riders land, remember “style is everything”.

Massive congratulations to Lee Chwieduk & INDY ERICH securing W3 & W7. Hard work pays off, so happy for you both… thanks to Ashmorebmx_Club for the image..

Factory47 Racing’s .1_arin maybe a long way away, but she is very much one of us. Arin on the top step winning gold in Korea, hopefully see her real soon on Aussie turf. Congrats Arin…

We keep saying it, but the 13 year girls class is legit. To make it into the main at national level is an achievement in itself. .bmx capped off a great week finishing 5th in the main. Charley joins a long list of talented Factory47 Racing girls from previous rosters, and making her mark on the team. But watch out, we 100% believe there is another gear for Charley and with the worlds approaching, could be great timing for this talented shredder. photo by .race

Nationals done and dusted, first goal for Factory47 Racing’s , make the cut to qualify for the worlds and he did just that. For those that have known Koby a long time, you’d notice the difference out on track. What you see is a rider with more confidence in his ability, matched with good people in his corner, a very strong work ethic to get to another level, and starting to tick off higher goals and achievements at big races.. we love this.

Great shot by .race . Factory47 Racing’s .chwieduk198 making the main in the 13 years class at nationals, a great result being that he had to overcome an injury in the lead in. Really enjoy watching Lee ride, tonnes of talent and a great kid. On the journey for the worlds now.

Congratulations to Factory47 Racing’s . Another national final and all important qualification for the upcoming world championships. As we all know, Bmx is such a pressure sport, where a fraction of a second can make a difference in every lap. A long day of getting through the excitement, anxiety, that mind battle and for it all to come down to less than a minute at the end of the day. To see athletes with a smile after it’s all finished, is why bmx racers stand out amongst higher profile sports in the country and can easily adapt into other disciplines and excel.
So proud of you Indy, we know you are hungry for more and we are here for you to achieve those goals.

Factory47 Racing had 4 of our shredders out on track yesterday, all 4 making the main too which we can’t express how proud we are. A lot of hard work going on in the background with each rider’s prep for these nationals. Onto the big show being the national championships and the all important world champs qualifying.

Factory47 Racing’s .bmx , joining the list of talented female Bmx shredders to race in the black and yellow jersey. When you look back, it’s a great list and Charley is absolute Factory47 material.
