WHATS UP! Its Hopper!!!!
Hey everyone....     I just wanted to put a quick post to tell you something you all already know.... I read my website every single day as you guys keep me going, and I enjoy hearing how everyone is doing. I have been under STRICT instruction from my management not to comment on anything or talk of any plans from here. I notice that someone got a little emotional for me not updating and keeping everybody informed, but I will give you my word right here and now "I promise you all, as payback for your support, as soon as i get the go ahead on what i can do and say this page will have the first press release from myself!". It seems that anything i say can be twisted or minipulated in the media, so i am choosing to not say much to avoid any confliction or drama. I appreciate all of you that support me, you are true die hards and thats awesome. All i will say is, you are all in for big treat!!!!! as always, THANKYOU ...

    Mr JB,
    Please rest assured John is up for the task. Your post has a familiar ring to it though, sounds like some I read on that WERA msg board. But any publicity is good I guess. Thanks for your support and good wishes. I'm sure John will do just fine.

    John,
    You better get up to speed quick. BIG BEN aint messing around, he's controling the yamaha with precision. Haga ans Biaggi are almost there but Ben has been taking it to them. I hope the Stiggy Honda can keep up. Best off luck this is great news to bad your 4 races down on the season. Congratulations for not giving up on the season. NOW FOCUS DUDE, NO PARTYING. The family vacation is over, you got to go to work now. I want to see you on the podium twice in Valencia, or I'll be knocking at your door in Miller.
    Sincerely,
    JB

    Latest rumour from MCN is that you'll be making an announcement tomorrow and that it's a ride with Stiggy Honda in WSB
    http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/sport/sportresults/mcn/2009/march/16-22/mar1909-hopkins-announcement-expected/
    Whatever the truth - just looking forward to seeing you race!

    It's almost funny reading the crap some of those guys think up on the WERA board. The only season he has not beaten his teammate was 2004 or 2005 when he and KRJR were tied on points (63) but Kenny finally decided to show up and had a podium in a wet race at Donnington. Every other year he has been the #1 finisher in the team. Yep, he is overrated...

    Dear Hopper:

    I trully understand why your management team wants you to remain comment free during this period, particularly when anything you say will be used against you. There is one thing you must keep in mind, you are YOUNG, and now that you are metal free this time off will only help you heal your body and get in better shape for the future. So stay in shape, enjoy your wife, the extra time with your family, and let your managers do their work.

    This could actually be a blessing in disguise, maybe this will be your opportunity to get a ride which will let you prove to everyone that, given the right equipment, you will be in the podium and winning races.

    Gday John, Looking foward to the big treat but the biggest treat would be to see you again at Phillip Island hitting Lukey Heights in October.
    See you soon

    Hey Hopper, what a major relief! Can't wait for the official word but I was hopping you were working on a deal to showcase your awesome grit and talent before the season got away. Now we know you realized Kawi was a lost cause. Hope you got a good ride in MotoGP but if you snagged something in WSB that would make it a kickin battle of the Americans! Can't wait to see you back in action! Best of luck.

    Johnny!!!

    As a fan of moto gp it was devistating news to here Kawi was pulling out... it is also horrible to see the grid shrinking...

    Next time your in S.D. you should realy take a ride up to the look out road house on ortega hwy (Sunday Mornings).... then hit up hells kitchen to watch the races with the boys! (that is of corse if your not competing for the podiem cyclopes

    Hope to see you back on the grid ASAP!

    Best,

    -Ryan

    I sure hope that the rumour-stage is soon over and you tell us you got a ride in MotoGP. I´ve been a fan since the bike broke down at Assen and you flipped it right in front of us. I was sad to see you leave Suzuki but i like your attitude and the way you ride. A third ´Zuki would be the perfect solution. But i´ll support you no matter what bike you might get.
    All the best from Denmark....see you on some European track this year i hope
