Interview

“As a rookie, I must reach the finish line”

The next generation of Czech motorcyclists is on the move. Inspired by national performers such as Martin Michek and Jan Brabec, several riders from this Central European country are following in their footsteps. Martin Prokes is one of them. Aged 25, he will be one of the youngest competitors of the bikes race, and also one of the rookies. He’s no stranger to the dirt and dust, as his life turns around motorbikes and his farm. Martin is good in driving tractors and combine harvesters, but also when he’s on 2-wheels. He started at the age of 7, initiated by his father who was a motocross lover. Since then, he has risen through the ranks to establish himself as one of the best riders of his country. He won his fourth Czech Republic enduro title in 2023. He would have liked to compete in the Dakar last year, but some crashes and a withdrawal during the 2022 Rallye du Maroc postponed his participation. He finally gained his entry ticket in Merzouga last October, finishing 42nd. The consecration of his apprenticeship in rally-raid, before facing the ultimate race of the sport.


M.P.: “Dakar is my long-term dream! As a rookie, I must definitely reach the finish line and that will be my goal. To finish the race would be a great result. It’s my first Dakar so I will be gaining experience every day. I prepared for this during the entire season in the Czech Republic. I rode enduro, and I think that the OffRoad Marathon stages that I did are good training. In the summer we were in the famous Viladoms Rally Station, in Spain, for a navigation training camp with roadbook, before competing the Rallye du Maroc. I tried to adapt to rally raid the whole season to be ready!”
