JS-Hey man, how are you? How is everything going?
MP- I’m good, just healing my shoulder from SX Madrid.
JS- So, when does the 4x season start? Are you splitting the series up to include BMX, or focus on the 4x only?
MP- the 4X world cup starts first week in May. I am going to do both series BMX SX and 4X world cup.
JS-Speaking of BMX Supercross, how are you liking the UCI BMX Supercross tracks this year? They look really fun to ride? What would you change if you could change anything about how they’re running those races?
MP-The tracks are so crazy right now but I love it. It is really my cup of tea racing and I think this is the way how BMX racing should look and be run in the future.
JS-So you’re riding for the bike company Author right? Tell us a little about who they are?
MP-Author is one of the biggest Eastern Europe bicycle company, for more info check www.author.eu. This year they started a new gravity program under new name called AGang, so I will be riding for AGang this season.
JS-What bike are you riding for bmx?
MP-It’s a AGang bmx prototype. More about it later.
JS-What is your favorite BMX track ?
MP-I like the BMX Supercross tracks, my favorite is Copenhagen.
JS-Switching gears, tell us what it’s like in Prague? The night life and all the fun stuff to do there?
MP-Prague is the most amazing city in Europe. There are three BMX tracks and one 4x track, Skateparks, trails etc. The night life; it’s the best. We have hot girls in every bar, club and pubs!! Even downtown walking on the streets…. and they all love Americans
JS-Who do you think the hottest BMX girl racer is? You can be honest.
MP-There are none.
JS-When was the last fist fight you got into, and what was it over?
MP- I never get into fights! I am always the first who runs away
JS-So what’s up with the videos that you come out with? Tell us about them…like the video 12 ?
MP-It is little Red Bull project about my life, racing and living. Every month is a new story.
JS-What are you going to do when you retire from racing? What age do you want to retire at?
MP-I will try to race as long as possible, when I see riders like Brian Lopes stretching out their careers, I know I could make it that long too.
JS- Anyone you would like to thank?
MP-Thanks to all my sponsors. AGang, Red Bull, Oakley, UFO, Formula Brakes, Kenda, Nike, THE
