TRISTAN CHARBONEAU
Tristan charboneau started out racing on the day he turned three years old. On his birthday his dad got him a PW50 and they raced it that very day. Although he got last, charboneau was hooked and continued to race around the Washington area, and by the time he wat just 4 and a half he was
on his way to Loretta Lynns for the first time. Even though showing promise early on in his motocross career Tristan and his family didn’t take it to serious until he was on 85’s. Tristan moved to Georgia and began training at age 11. In 2014 not only
did Charboneau win his first ever championship at Loretta Lynn’s he took home TWO Titles in the B class. After putting on such an amazing performance at The Ranch, Tristan recieved the greatest prize of all, A deal with the Factory Connection Honda team. Ever since Charboneau has been training and riding with the Geico riders and fellow FC amateur riders. @TRISTANCHARBONEAU doesn’t live the normal teenage life as he has his goals on the big picture and that is to win a couple of championships at Lorettas to finish
off his amateurs on top and come out swinging at the last three outdoor rounds of 2016. The FC AMSOIL Honda rider is on a strict schedule, everyday is near identical. He will start with a light jog in the morning and then have his breakfast and get ready to head to the race shop. Once he loads his bike up from the shop he will head to the practice tracks to put in his moto’s for the day. Drive back to the race shop clean up, and do a workout with his trainer John. Once at home Tristan likes to relax and prepare himself for the next day. Charboneau has a great group behind him and he would like to thank them as he knows he wouldn’t be where he is today without them. The Factory Connection Honda Team for sticking behind him no matter what, and helping him better himself. His parents, and brother. His Mechanic Hayden. His trainer J. And of course his work out trainer John.
