AUBURN HILLS, Mich. (June 4, 2020) – Mahindra Automotive North America and ROXOR ride into the extreme sports arena as a sponsor for Jess Lockwood and Matt Triplett, competitors of the Professional Bull Riders Tour. While at the moment there may not be live audiences at large events, the Professional Bull Riders tour has resumed with new social distancing policies in place to allow professional cowboys to earn a paycheck, while fans can watch the action live on the CBS Sports Network. Two-time world champion, Jess Lockwood joined the PBR on his 18th birthday on September 28, 2015. Lockwood quickly proved his talent and skill by being named Rookie of the Year in 2016 and again in 2017 when he became the youngest PBR World Champion. Lockwood won his second PBR world championship in 2019 and became the youngest bull rider to win two world championships, with current earnings of over $4M at such a young age. Matt Triplett, another top 10 rider, finished 7th to end the 2019 PBR Tour, has earned north of $1.3M, and with 23 total wins, this 28 year old up and coming sensation is loaded for another stellar season for 2020. “I really enjoy my ROXOR around my ranch. It is all off road, and from mending cattle fences to hauling feed, It’s the perfect tool and ride to make life on the farm so much easier, and exactly what I need for this recent downtime. You can do anything with this vehicle,” said Jess Lockwood. Fans can expect to see behind the scenes images and video of Lockwood and Triplett utilizing their custom ROXORs on their ranch homes through each of their social media platforms. Both Lockwood and Triplett’s safety vest and shirts will display the black and white ROXOR logo as they each buck their way through the world rankings to the top.
