RJ HAMPSHIRE
RJ Hampshire is one
of those riders who is doing everything he can to transfer success in the amateur ranks over to the pros. Time and time again it has been proven to be one of
the biggest challenges for new and aspiring riders. RJ has done well, but has not been winning like he has wanted to. RJ is most definitely improving
and taking his time
to learn the pace and grueling fitness that
is needed to be a contender in the pros. He has been steadily gaining confidence and it is beginning to show. With a decent year in Supercross and many top ten finishes so far this season, it will not be surprising if he is able to take some wins in 2017. This year,
RJ has been floating around the top ten
quite a bit and fighting hard to maintain the positions. He is putting his all into it and if he could pull a holeshot it wouldn’t be far fetched to see him finish in
the top five before the season is over. Look for RJ to continue his path of improvement as the season comes to an end.
