Beta Racing announced the signing of Jonathan Johnson.
The 24-year-old from Landrum, South Carolina will ride for the Beta Factory Race Team on a two-year deal. Johnson wrapped up the GNCC XC3 Championship in 2021. Next year, he will compete in the XC2 and the NE Pro2 class at the National Enduro aboard a Beta Factory 250 RR.
“I turned pro in 2018 and have competed in both the XC2 and XC3 class at the GNCC,” Johnson said. “I’m excited to be joining Beta for the 2022 and 2023 seasons. The Beta Factory 250 RR will suit me well in the chase of XC2 and NEPG Pro2 podiums.”
“We are very excited to welcome Jonathan to the team,” said Team Manager Carlen Gardner. “Jon is a very respectful and dedicated young rider who will go very far in his career. He has had great success and we are looking forward to continuing that success by his side.” CN
