VIDEO: X-Fusion Presents – The Brian Lopes Story

The great thing about our sport is that there’s now enough history to be able to create some really great, interesting and inspiring stories. Brian Lopes has been riding, racing and winning for 40 years now (yes! really!) and so one of his sponsors, X-Fusion decided it was time to lay down the full history of Brian’s riding life in film.

Brian, flyin’

Did you know why he rides with the number 55 on his jersey? Did you know how old he was when he got his first BMX sponsorship deal? When he turned pro? When he switched from BMX to MTB? This 10 minute film is well worth your time so get a brew, grab your sandwiches and sit back and watch this heart warming history lesson of one of the greatest riders we’ve ever seen as he talks us through his life.

What Mark doesn’t know about social media isn’t worth knowing and his ability to balance “The Stack” is bested only by his agility on a snowboard. Graphs are what gets his engine revving, at least they would if his car wasn’t electric, and data is what you’ll find him poring over in the office. Mark enjoys good whisky, sci-fi and the latest Apple gadget, he is also the best boss in the world (Yes, he is paying me to write this).
