Clayborn BMX

        Clayborn Factory BMX ends 2008 with big news!!

 

2008 was the year that saw Clayborn Factory BMX go from a small Eastcoast team to expending from one coast to the other with the addition of "Insane" Brooke Crain and Jordan "The Missle" Miranda. Two of the fast amatures to come out of the Golden State. 2008 was also the year that Clayborn Factory BMX race team saw their AA Pro, Barry Nobles in the hunt for both ABA Pro AA and Cruiser titles.

                                                 

 

Barry Nobles came into the 2008 season just looking to get back into form coming off his ACL surgery and being off his bike for a while. Hard work and dedication paid off, as Barry got his first AA Pro win and liked how it felt on top of the podium and we saw him there many times this past season. While focusing on the ABA Pro circuit, Barry did all he could to get the most coveted Pro title in the USA, the ABA #1 Pro title. But, bad luck kept him out of the mains and he ended the season with a very respected #4 on his plate for 2009 in class. With the cruiser points to close to call going into the mains at the ABA Grands, Barry had to beat Danny C. by 2 places to take home the title, Barry did what he had to and won the main, but had a hard charging Danny C. right on his tail, with that Barry brought home the big #2 for 2008 in cruiser. Barry's hard work is continuing right into 2009 and he will be in Reno NV in January to begin his quest for the ABA Pro title.

 Jordan Miranda battles one of the biggest classes in ABA BMX

Jordan Miranda made his Clayborn Factory Racing debut in 2008 and shocked a lot of people when he did. Coming off an ankle injury for part of 2008, Jordan had to make up some ground in his chase for the NAG #1 in 14 Expert, hard work and playing football at his school was what it took for Jordan to get back in the hunt for the #1 plate in the ABA. Jordan has the heart and drive that makes him a great addition to the Clayborn Factory amateur program. Finishing a season that was put on hold for his ankle injury, Jordan ended a respectfully NAG #4 in class and NAG #5 in Cruiser. 14 Expert was the second largest class at the 2008 ABA Grands and Jordan "The Missile" Miranda finished a strong 3rd.
