Jose has two main objectives when travelling to this competition, that is organized under the name of Merida Bike Vysocina: “this race has been in my calendar from the beginning of the season. The first objective is to help strengthen the important image that Merida has in this market, in a race that, moreover, is sponsored by our brand. Apart from that, this race will be good for my preparation towards the Spanish and European Championships. These competitions are basic in order to tune the engine and get used to the demanding racing pace”.

In what comes to the race format, there will be a sprint race on Saturday, with 4-men qualifying runs in an explossive and fast 500m track. On Sunday, Jose will face the regular X-Country race, in an event where we will find the most important names of the MTB Czech scene and some top internactional riders.
