Clark Custom Cycles is proud to sponsor the 2009 Czech Single Speed National Championships.

Planning is underway for the second and a halfth annual Czech Single Speed mountain bike National Championship. The next race is likely only a few months away, planned for late December 2009. We expect this one to be a kinda low key smaller deal, but to set the stage for many years to come of great single speed events in the Czech Republic.

All single speed races (to most likely be held on Prague’s south side) will be of the less-traditional non-sanctioned race in the style of the Single Speed World Championships, recently held in Durango, Colorado, USA. The aim is to promote Single Speed biking in the Czech Republic in general, to get SS bikers together for a fun event, and maybe to convince some Czech riders into going to upcoming Single Speed World Championships. (2010 SSWC in Rotura, New Zealand Oct 22. 2010 & 2009-10 SSCXWC in Portland, Oregon, USA Nov 7. 2009) Races will not be sanctioned be the UCI,  ČSC, or ČEMBA. This is a friendly competition to fill the gap these official institutions leave.

This race is for everyone who likes to ride bikes with one gear, not just those who would ever race at an elite or even advanced level. The only requirement is to show up with one gear and be willing to ride. (It will help if you are willing to drink beer or rum, too, cause it will be cold!)
