LAWSON BOPPING
Lawson Bopping has emerged from the land down under following in the footsteps of fellow countrymen Chad Reed. In his first season in the States he has quickly become one of the
top privateers in the 450 class. The rider hailing from Australia has found himself in favorable positions this year mixing it up with the best in the sport by nailing his starts. That experience battling near the front of the pack in the heat races and semis have surely helped calm his nerves from racing far away from his home. Bopping’s goal each race is to qualify for the main event and he is an impressive four for five to begin the season. With his confidence rising after each round, we can look to see Bopping become a lock to qualify for every main event.
