ABOUT
Beginnings
It was the year 2003 when we, a group of young teenagers, first started riding bikes. On basic XC bikes, we tried downhill runs, jumps, and messing around in the woods—pretty unconventional stuff at the time. People looked at us like we were mad. But gradually, things began to change. Bikers from more distant towns started coming to Malá Morávka, the first downhill races were organised, and the construction of official single trails began. The whole scene started to gain momentum.
Development
What began as pure enthusiasm grew into a community, the community became a culture, and that culture turned into a way of life. Biking in Mala Moravka has become an inseparable part of local life. Today, we have one of the best bike parks in the Czech Republic, bike schools with certified instructors, and mountain biking is booming like never before. Technology keeps moving forward—e-bikes are on the rise, bringing with them new possibilities. Our community is now massive. Many of us who started out as teenagers now have kids of our own—and it’s them we’re passing our passion on to. That’s how a new generation of bikers is being born, one that connects the past, present, and future.
Future
Cycling is not just a sport for us – it is a way of life. Even though we have jobs, families and everyday worries, it still draws us to the forest, to the trails, to the bike. It still brings us joy. We laugh, push our limits and spend time together. And that is where the future of our community lies. In the joy of cycling together, in mutual support and in openness to new people who want to be a part of it.
