TWELVE April
The fourth part of the series takes us to a place which every athlete would better avoid. Michal’s shoulder, injured at the last year’s 4Xshow more World Cup in Canada, seemed to be finally OK ... until his tumble in the training for BMX Supercross in Madrid. The two BMX races in Florida confirmed that old problems were back again and so, cont...rary to the plan, the camera of Rob Trnka aimed at a sterile environment of the rehabilitation clinic Malvazinky instead of the dust of races... But first, we stop in 9395 Bikes, the kingdom of bike-epicures, which is dominated by dexterous hands and incessant doses of jokes of Dlouhan, the tallest of all the mechanics there. In this place Michal’s new machines come into world with the AGang name before each season. Two weeks were left until the first part of the World Cup in Belgian Houffalize and Michal had to watch the opening race of the Czech Cup and the premiere happening Euro Fourcross Series in the home track Polis.13 only as a spectator. But in the end he succumbed to temptation and in the evening he took his place at the start for training at least for a while. The double world champion has found an amazing place for the last days for preparations before the proper start of the main season in Krusne hory on the fourcross track in Kraslice and on surrounding trails. Looking in the latest results we can be sure that there is nothing that could beat Michal Prokop. But thanks to the TWELVE you also already know that the way to the top is sometimes more long and winding than the Rob’s trails.show less
