The Czech 4X Cup was here before the fourcross became official at the UCI Mountainbike World Cup. Now we are going already into the volume number six, thanks the new title sponsor this year called also the Ruhrbau 4X Cup 2007.





Some series call themselves “the biggest 4X series in Europe”. All right then. But do they also have two of top three World Cup riders on the starting list? We don’t think so, haaa (peace Chris;) With two times World Champion and two times World Cup winner Michal Prokop of Author, Kamil Tatarkovic of Kona Les Gets, plus other top dogs on board, to get into the Czech 4X Cup final means to have damn brilliant World Cup level skills.

 

Just come and try! The first of five rounds of Ruhrbau 4X Cup 2007 is just round the corner. We will start in Moravian town Prerov on forthcoming weekend with training on Saturday June 2nd and race day on Sunday June 3rd.

 

Then we will have three races in August. Round #2 will take a place in another Moravian town Sumperk. Week after that, for the very first time the Czech 4X Cup moves across the Czech boarders even. We are happy to announce that to many top European 4X riders well known track in Polish Szczawno Zdrój will host round #3. Another two weeks later will be Prague the place to come! The only 4X track inside any world’s capital, called Polis XIII that was opened with huge SEAT 4X Masters in May 2006 is ready to host top 4X riders again. The last round will be in Litomerice, not so far from northern of Prague. The course there was changed before each race but always the top of what we have here in the Czech Republic.

Michal Prokop, the factory rider of Author and reigning 4X World Champion and World Cup winner comes with the silver from second round of the UCI Fourcross World Cup held in Swiss ski resort Champéry this past weekend.


Starting early after the start of Friday’s qualification on the wet and slippery but drying course, Michal finished over one second ahead of the rest of the world with only one exception. Brian Lopes starting from some reason at the end of the pack was just flying on the almost dry course in the fastest time.

 

As every day of last week in Champéry, the rain came also on Saturday afternoon. Shortly after beginning of the 1/16 final, just before Michal’s first round, few minutes of very hard rain, upper part of the race course have changed into real water fall. Deep mud, very slippery stones in the rock garden and asphalted turns, it all made the race very challenging. Once again, Michal demonstrated a set of amazing starts and excellent first turn moves all the way to the final round. There were three Red Bull riders on the gate of the last round of the day. Michal Prokop, Filip Polc and Gee Atherton. Last but not the least was Brian Lopes.

 

Michal presented another Holeshot and was leading the pack. It doesn't happen very often that someone can resist Michal Prokop's pedal power and riding skills. But during Saturday’s 4X finals in the rainy beauty of the Swiss Alps Brian Lopes provided good move on Michal in the rock garden and toke the lead. On a course which started with a mountain bike layout and ended in a parking lot the World Cup Champion of 2005 managed to stay in front of the Czech rocket all the way through the finish line. Silver in Champéry and third place in the World Cup standing after two races for Michal.

 

“Coming home from the land of world’s most precise watches makes me confused. I fell off two times in the training but thanks to great working UFO body protectors I always stood up without problem. After all, second place behind Brian is good one. That man is just amazing and we all would be lucky to be in such a shape at his age. On the other hand, it was not a race that I could really enjoy. Why to organize the World Cup race where it looks like people are neither happy nor proud to host such a top class event?! They call it the World Cup but many local events are way better organized. I don’t see any other reason why to organize that important race there, except because it is so close to the UCI headquarters. Most of us are traveling thousands kilometers to make a good show with hope also promoters will make their best. Some do, some not… unfortunately!


I believe Phil Saxena made his best to build this race course but I really missed more flow. So short first straight followed by soft flat turn was maybe spectacular but at first it was great place for dangerous moves! You know this new idea of tracks combining downhill like and BMX like sections is basically ok but it is not possible to build any 100% working race course without a chance to test it before the World Cup race. We need to improve the courses step by step. To change this part and that, make new turn or a straight, add a rock garden…. Not to remove everything and start from zero again! To build brand new course on a green field for every single World Cup round is expensive and stupid. For example, I like the course in Mont Sainte Anne. It is still on the same place and they just improve it every year a bit. That works!

 

Someone said that those new school DH like tracks are here because of pursuit to get DH riders back to fourcross. Forget it until UCI will change the World Cup weekend schedule. Nobody can stop DH session and jump on his 4X bike at the same moment. Those guys are tired and have another trainings and race next day! Did anybody think how dangerous is to race fourcross after so many hours of training on such a slope like in Champéry?! So, the World Cup schedule is something to think about. Why to spend so much time in a sleeping ski resort waiting for one hour long show? Are we all that rich?! We are not downhillers, our race courses are ten times shorter and remain almost the same during a day. We could easily have two races during four days… Or, what about to have two hours training session on Friday afternoon, another hour and a half on Saturday a.m. followed by qualification? Then short warm up and finals on Saturday afternoon or night? Just an idea.”

 

Next weekend will be free of racing for Michal, so the promotion events are on the schedule. On Tuesday June 12 Michal will attend Autosalon, the biggest car show here taking place in Brno ready to sign hundreds of posters on SEAT booth. Day after, there will be traditional downtown cross country race called “Prazske schody” where another autograph session of Mr. Prokop is scheduled.

 

Next race will be the UEC BMX European Championships taking place in Kampen, the Netherlands on the weekend of 23-24th June. Unfortunately, because of this Olympic qualification event, Michal can’t attend round three of the UCI 4X World Cup taking place in his favorite venue Mont Sainte Anne in Canada.

Two days. Two races. Two disciplines. Two victories! The numbers are quite easy when speaking about the Podium Machine. Michal Prokop, factory rider of Author, got top Czech National Series events of two different disciplines under his control this past weekend.


On Saturday Michal was racing his own race during the round #3 of Czech BMX Championships in Brno. Technical problems with the gate, strong rain-shower, event schedule delay… nothing stopped Michal on his way on top of the podium.

 

Because of late finals in Brno, Michal lost Saturday’s training session of the first round of Ruhrbau 4X Cup 2007 held in Prerov, about 100 km north of Brno. But he was there still on time for a short party session so important for the event promotion ;)

 

Rain all the night and also in the morning helped the track to be ready for the real mountainbiking. Totally different conditions from BMX racing often on concrete runways. Slippery course was drying during the training session and everything looked fine with TV cameras all around the track. Unfortunately, Michal’s finger got hurt badly during the cleaning of bike right before the qualification round. No problem for a though guy… a little while afterwards Michal toke the second qualification time. The rest of the afternoon was just Michal’s game. First in all the rounds, first in the final, second win within a weekend. He spent more time giving the TV interview than on the course.


Almost half an hour of 4X racing will be broadcasted on the channel CT4 Sport of Czech Television, the public service broadcaster in the Czech Republic on Thursday June 7th at 18:40 and replied day after at 10:30 and also on Saturday June 9th at 19:45.

 

Next race will be the UCI 4X World Cup #2 taking place in Champéry, Switzerland already on this Saturday.

Michal Prokop and his fourcross weapon are 100% ready for the first round of the UCI 4X World Cup 2007 taking place in Spanish Vigo this weekend. Both qualification tonight and race tomorrow are going to be real challenge on this though “new school” 4X course… Stay tuned and keep fingers crossed;)

 

I am so excited to present a lot of news in current World Champion’s career… Michal decided to continue riding Author bikes in another two years! As you already probably know, you will see him driving SEAT cars once again, wearing race kit of UFO Plast race wear and protectors completed with stylish Smith Optics eyewear. And the hottest news of today is: Michal is flying on Red Bull wings!!!

 

You can find some brand new and interesting stuff also on Prokop’s weapon. Please let me introduce the second generation of Author Prokop 4X frame equipped with number of hot parts. Do not miss Hayes Stroker brakes, KORE Torsion BFD bars, B52 stem or prototype I-Beam saddle. Shaman Racing is coming with a limited silver edition of their 4X Pro Carbon chainguide. What else? Well-proven Manitou Minute fork and Kenda Nevegal tires for example. We are proud to welcome aboard SRAM X.0 gearing, Truvativ Holzfeller OCT cranksets and SunRinglé Charger wheels! Special thanks go to SlimGrafix for the cool and shiny paints of all new helmet and frame.

 

Top secret! The generation three of Author Prokop 4X frame will come to be ready for the second part of 2007 season to help Michal at his battle for the third World Champion title.

Prokop and Author together for another two years Those Czechs from beautiful Prague decided to continue showing the rest of the World who is the king of fourcross in another two years. Michal Prokop and Author are already two times Fourcross World Champions and two times Fourcross World Cup Winners. Now they decided to go east – Beijing 2008 direction – hand by hand again.



Since Michal Prokop jumped on Author bikes four years ago, he dominated most of fourcross races he did attend. Prokop became the face of Author, the leader of Czech cycling industry and top player on the European market. Two years ago, the Author Prokop 4X frame joined the wide range of Author products and still is the first choice of most of either Czech or foreign 4X riders. Also A-Gang P.M. – the top model of Author product line for kids loving massive jumps – was designed in association with Michal Prokop and signed by this hard working champ himself. Wheels were turning pretty fast, four years of successful cooperation left and this winning couple just didn’t see any reason why to split their ways.



Year 2006 was just amazing for Michal Prokop and Author! Racing every single weekend and living on the podium continually since May till October all around the Globe. One day earning points for the BMX Olympics, few days after mastering the World of mountain bikers. Second rainbow jersey in his wardrobe, second World Cup trophy on it when being ten years younger his greatest rivals. Beating big names globálky and giving pride to thousands fans home in the Czech Republic.



“You know, to go ahead with Author, it was an easy decision. When I look back, it is just amazing to see what everything a bunch of guys with the same passion from the small and young European country achieved. I am proud to take all the nedala on Author bikes. I ride frames made exactly in accordance to what I feel to be the best for me. You can stop and buy some of them in a bike shop near you some time. I can ride top bikes no matter
what I am going to do, training on road, flying above my trails or working hard on the velodrome. These guys helped my career a lot and would be sweet to bring them a medal with five circles on it. I am always doing my best, either in the gym or on the track, but this dream will cost much more. Luckily, Author is hearing my needs and this new contract we just signed is the proper one. I will need eighteen quiet months without any financial or material stress to be ready for the Olympics and this is exactly what I am getting now. Thanks for that!”

What do you need to achieve to be crowned a King of the Czech cycling of a year? Not that much... Two World Champion titles, two World Cup titles, ten World Cup wins, two European Champion titles, two Jeep King of the Mountain titles, gold from SEAT 4X Masters, silver from UCI BMX Supercross, final at BMX Worlds and 90% of Olympic qualification ranking points for your country seem to be enough.



Michal Prokop is the King of the Czech cycling 2006! Since 1966 Czech Cycling Union officials and selected sports journalists did vote 27 athletes including one queen all presenting traditional disciplines of road or track cycling. Also the cycle cross and cycle-ball already had their multiple kings. Luckily not only for the Czech fourcross and BMX community, we have Michal Prokop, the unique guy breaking through all the limits. And thanks to Michal, after long 41 years of the oldest sports award here in the Czech Republic, first ever fat tire King was finally crowned.



"This crown belongs not just to me but to all the people working so hard to support me on my way day be day for many years. My family, coach, agent, sponsors, Author gangsters and fans have to have their own crowns. Hopefully, the power of this award helps fourcross and BMX to be taken by public media as the serious ways of cycling. I am happy to be the first ever Czech rider bringing the deserved pride to all the fans of fat tires. For a long time we had to fight hard to be taken as a real part of the Czech Cycling Union with all the rights and now it looks that we really are. I will work hard to confirm this next year again but you know, it is just award and it is not all in my hands, legs or bike, it is about what people think about what you do. Votes are not the same as race results."

It has been an amazing 2006 season for Michal Prokop. Racing every weekend resulted in virtually living on the podium continually from May till October all around the Globe! One day he earned points for the BMX Olympics, few days later he was mastering the World of mountain bikers in Fourcross competition. A second rainbow jersey in his wardrobe and a second World Cup trophy too, even while being ten years younger than his greatest rivals. Beating the big names globally and giving pride to thousands fans home in the small country of the Czech Republic is all in a day’s work for Michal. And at the end of such a great year of 2006, Michal Prokop meets UFO!



Michal Prokop joins UFO Plast for next two years.



“We are happy to announce that Michal Prokop: two times Fourcross World Champion, two times Fourcross World Cup Winner and runner-up in the UCI BMX Supercross World Cup, choose UFO Plast to be his partner for race wear and body protectors for the next two years, which includes his trip to the first ever BMX race at the Olympic Games 2008 in China! This cooperation is definitely great success for all of us. It is undoubtedly one of the main achievements for UFO Plast, and we expect this signing to really help us. Michal is one of the strongest, fastest, smoothest and highly motivated guys both on gravity mountain bike or the BMX scene - a real Pro rider,” said Mr. Simone Consoloni, director of UFO Plast MTB and BMX departments. “Our cooperation won’t be just about product and financial support. We want to test and develop together a new range of pants, shorts, gloves and body protection. Michal, being so focused on all the smallest details of his equipment is the perfect partner for this”. Mr. Consoloni clarifies.



“To become the spokesman for such a strong company like UFO Plast, especially when the two upcoming years are so important for my career, makes me proud and content. I am a bit of a fanatic when choosing my race wear comes, so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw how good the UFO 2007 product line is! All the MX-17 pants and gloves look sweet as well as the Empire race shorts. They already delivered prototype knee and shin protectors, which meet my needs very well, so that’s why I’m looking forward to all the future projects we will work on together. I’ll do my best, so that that my rivals will only see UFO on my back, while my fans will have the privilege of seeing the front side on the podium!” quipped current World Champion and World Cup Winner Michal Prokop. “And last but not the least, I would like to thank and wish all the best to the guys at Troy Lee Designs for all the support they gave me during last three seasons,” he added.

About UFO Plast



It all started in 1977 when Vito Consoloni, a young energetic workman full of great resolutions cherishing a secret dream, decided to set up his own business, thus establishing UFO Plast together with two more people. He was not short of desire to work or wish to encounter obstacles; first of all he was motivated by his great passion for sport, which even before activated his mind. Inside the 120-square-metre garage, this hothouse of dreams soon began to yield fruit to end up with substantial profits, official recognition of its high quality products and several motocross and enduro victories. However, even he would have never been able to imagine that his modest company only with three employees could become one day the greatest world reality in the market with accessories for all-terrain vehicles. UFO Plast assumed the first position in production of plastics for motorcycles, protective elements, and sportswear in the third millennium.



Nowadays, the company still retains the industrial philosophy which inspired its founders 30 years ago, but it applies these same principles to new contents and products. The headquarters now spread over surface of 8.000 square metres and are characterized by a modern and eye-catching architectural design, while the futuristic technological features make it possible to deal with orders in real time. Five warehouses, two product shops, a solid sector of research and development, and eighty employees allow UFO Plast to produce its 3,000 products, which they supply every year to thousands of sale places located in the entire world. Searching for shapes, selection of materials and diligence focused on quality represent three conditions thanks to which UFO Plast trademark managed to break through during the time with permanently growing success.



And at the end – sport – the final goal, the fulfillment of which is substantiated by many titles achieved in world championships in motocross and enduro – dreamt-off important winnings, behind which there is the soul of UFO Plast trademark, the first real supporter of this beautiful sport.

Today it was revealed that Fourcross World Champion Michal Prokop had a secret weapon during his pursuit of the rainbow-striped jersey in New Zealand earlier this year.



“KORE Components had asked me to evaluate their cockpit components last Spring. I liked the B1B stem, BFD bar, Elite I-Beam seat and seat post so much I decided to use them the entire season, culminating in my win of the UCI Fourcross World Championship in Rotorua, New Zealand this year”, says 25 years old Author factory rider Michal Prokop from the Czech Republic.



KORE announces the signing of Michal Prokop to 3-year contract.



KORE today announced the signing of Fourcross World Champion and BMX sensation Michal ProkopCzech Republic to a 3-year racing and product development contract retroactive to July 1, 2006. The retroactive part is a bit unusual said Lance Bohlen, KORE’s general manager. “Michal liked our parts during testing, so we kept trying to find a way to make the deal work. Not able to announce anything until the deal was signed, we had to sit on the sidelines knowing all along that Michal was using KORE parts to win the World’s Fourcross down in New Zealand. Now we can tell everybody!"



Part of the deal is to have Michal intimately involved in the development of new handlebars, stems, seats and seat posts with an idea to eventually commercialize some designs under a KORE Michal Prokop

Domination of the Author factory rider Michal Prokop from the Czech Republic continues. With four wins and one fourth place from five races of the 2006 UCI 4X World Cup in the bag, Michal Prokop can be already crowned as the 2006 UCI 4X World Cup Champion, no matter what will happen at the series finals taking place in late September in austrian Schladming. After interruption of his amazing winning series with 4th place at the third round of the World Cup in Willingen, Germany, panamerican part of the World Cup tour has again the same scenario written by Mr. Holeshot - as called by many – as many other races before.



UCI 4X World Cup #4 in Mont Sainte Anne, Canada Michal´s favourite World Cup venue saw him in his best shape again. Fastest in qualification, first in every single heat. Big fight with Rinderknecht with traditional result… first in the final round. No else to say. Same story as one year ago;)



UCI 4X World Cup #5 in Balneario Camboriu, Brazil One week after the victory in Canada and then crazy long trip including broken plane and bus trip from airport to airport through whole Sau Paulo, our hero is finaly on hot east coast of Brazil, surprisingly with his Author bike and all bags.Michal knows that he´ll propably miss final race in Austria because of term collision with the UCI BMX Supercross, where the important points for olympic nomination are available to grab. Third place in qualification is good enough to choose the lane until the final. Michal shows why they call him Mr. Holeshot, goes to the lead and crosses the finish line first for the fourth time this season and second time in his career as the winner of overall World Cup standing!



Author Prokop 4X signature frame that anybody can buy, equipped with Manitou Minute fork, Kenda tires, Cane Creek wheels, Hayes brakes, Shimano shifting parts and Shaman Racing carbon chainguide were definitely approved to be the combo of champions.



Michal Prokop never stops. From Spain through Great Britain, Germany, Canada and Brazil to USA. Next time you can see him in action already this Saturday defending the title of Jeep King of the Mountain in San Luis Obispo, California. Coming from tiny european country of the Czech Republic but racing global every week, this is Michal „Mr. Holeshot“ Prokop!



Big thanks go to all Michal Prokop´s sponsors and product suppliers for their important support… -

Author factory rider Michal Prokop from the Czech Republic needed just one month to collect five big wins! World Champion, World Cup Winner, European Champion, National Champion and Czech 4X Cup winner dominated all biggest fourcross events, bringing the crowds amazing battles with his long time rival Brian Lopes and many other fastest 4X and BMX riders.



After the horrible crash leading in worst injury of his career at World Champioships in Livigno and luckily successful recovery, Michal Prokop started his off season for the very first time with pretty serious and hard training on track bicycle. But you know Michal, this young man is always looking for new goals. It was not just a training, four months were enough to be nominated into the czech national team and bring Cane Creek´s fantastic new wheels Aros 58 Track for 2006 Track World Championships in France!



Over six thousands spectators had the first chance to see Michal Prokop in action after his injury at the SEAT 4X Masters, first ever international fourcross race in Prague, capitol of the Czech Republic. Eighty top riders of 12 nations, including current world champion Brian Lopes, freeriding star Kyle Strait and world cup winners Leive-Ove Nordmark and Guido Tschugg accepted Prokop´ s invitation to this celebration of the sport of fourcross running on brand new track build according to the plan of Mr. Holeshot as many call Michal Prokop. Michal won the qualification and all his heats which brought him into the great final against Marosi, Tatarkovic and Lopes. Final round of SEAT 4X Masters was just pure essention of fourcross racing with Prokop and Lopes drag racing on 70 metres long first straight. Unique combintation of precise start reaction, unbeatable strenght in his legs and technical skills, that´s what you would need to beat Michal Prokop on his home course named Polis XIII. None was faster on 1st May 2006, Prokop clearly won SEAT 4X Masters. For more details please visit www.seat4Xmasters.com



Five days left and Prokop stays on the top of podium again. UCI 4X World Cup 2006 started in spanish Vigo and it´s the same simple game as it was in 2005. Prokop won the qualification, all his heats and then also the final.



One week later, another country, totally different bike. No matter what kind of bike he is riding, consistency could be his nick name… Prokop is taking another gold, this time at 3rd round of European BMX Championships in Germany!



May 21st, Czech 4X Cup, round one. Not just a national level race but the base where many World´s top fourcross riders of the UCI number one ranked nation of the Czech Republic are comming from. Prokop, Marosi, Tamme, Tatarkovic, Slavik and many other not yet well known 4X dogs you can see at Czech 4X Cup. To get into the final in Elite category is just a dream for most of 4X riders. Note that one position on the gate is almost booked. Every single race of the Czech 4X Cup that Michal Prokop attended he also won. Same in Prerov. Fourth gold in three weeks!



Let´s move to Scotland. UCI 4X World Cup continues in Fort William. Friday´s qualification belongs to Czechs. Again. Prokop is first, Tatarkovic second, Tamme nineth. Saturday´s race is running under Prokop´s simple scenario. Five rounds, five wins. From start to the finish line.



Author Prokop 4X signature frame that anybody can buy, equipped with new Manitou R-Seven fork, Kenda tires, Cane Creek wheels, Hayes brakes, Shimano shifting parts and Shaman Racing carbon chainguide were definitely approved to be a winning combo.



If health, Michal Prokop never stops to race. This „machine like guy“ takes about 50 race results every year and most of them are medal positions. The World´s best gravity riders will try to catch him again this Saturday at third stop of UCI World Cup in Willingen, Germany. Stay tuned.



Michal Prokop would like to thank to all his sponsors and product suppliers for their mostly long term support…
