Dean Ferris announces retirement from professional racing

Dean Ferris has had an amazing Motocross career as he’s raced at the highest level all over the World. Whether it be in Australia, the MXGP World Championship or in America, Ferris has experience at it all.

The likeable Aussie who recently had a serious injury, has announced that he’s decided to step away from professional racing.

Motocross is still in his blood so he will still be involved in the sport which is always great to see!

“Well Guys I didn’t ever think this day would come but here it is. My professional racing career has come to an end! I’m choking up while writing this as motocross has been my life. All I ever wanted to do as a young boy was ride bikes and I’m proud as hell about how far I made it.
The road was long and extremely difficult but so worth it. Not to mention the great people, life skills, lessons and exploration I gained along the way. I’ve known for a while that my racing days are done but I’ve needed time to see what’s next and how involved in Motocross I want to be. No matter what I try, I keep ending up back at the track and it’s bloody satisfying to pass on my knowledge that seemed so hard to obtain. So you’ll be seeing me around the track, just with a different role. Thank you, thank you, thank you to everyone that played a part”, Ferris stated on social media.
