Who is Martin Matějíček?

My name is Martin Matějíček and I have been riding moto trials since 2003. For those who are not yet familiar with this discipline, it is a very attractive low-speed sport on specially designed motorcycles, where the rider passes through natural and man-made sections full of obstacles. The goal is to complete the course without crashes, touching the ground with your feet, or damaging the course markers. The rider with the lowest number of penalty points wins.

 

In the past, I was fully focused on racing and competed in the World Championship, the European Championship, and other international events. These experiences gave me a strong foundation and many valuable memories. Today, I only take part in selected competitions, such as the Czech Championship, and focus more on show performances, where I can share my passion for moto trial with the audience.

 

Besides moto trials, I also do other sports that are important for physical preparation — but most of all, I simply enjoy them. I like cycling, occasionally do yoga or go to the gym, and in winter I go cross-country skiing. In my remaining time, I am also interested in financial markets and focus on investing and options trading.

Motivation

I have been riding trials for many years and it has become a natural part of my life. Today, I focus mainly on shows and performances, where I can show the audience what is possible on a trials motorbike. I train and try to get a little better at what I do.
