Kyrgyzstan acclimatization 🇰🇬

After assembling my bike in Bishkek, I headed straight into the mountains. I made my way over Kegeti Pass, across Karakol Pass and into Karakol Valley, where I spent four days embracing the slow life.

Camping at high altitude, taking in the incredible Kyrgyz nature, and finally slowing down after months of preparation and anticipation. It was exactly what I needed.

I then made my way to the village of Suusamyr and continued towards Talas, where the race starts.

Along the way, I met so many amazing new friends — and on Saturday, we’ll all line up together for what might be the biggest adventure of our lives: Silk Road Mountain Race!

Now there’s nothing left to do but rest, recover and get ready.

See you at the start! 🇰🇬#silkroadmountainrace #ultracycling #bikepackingrace #Kyrgyzstan taken in Talas, Kyrgyzstan by @peterkovskey

Trénink na Silk Road Mountain Race #1 – MENTAL MORAL ⛰️

Jak se připravuju? Snažím se dělat věci, do kterých se mi vlastně úplně nechce. 🌧️

Třeba v dešti vyjet na Skalku do 1000 m n. m. a pro „zpestření“ to vzít po ne úplně cyklo-friendly stezkách. 🪨

Doufám, že tím trénuju svůj mental moral na horší podmínky v Kyrgyzstánu 🇰🇬🏔️, které mě určitě čekají. Minimálně tam na mě nebude čekat pivko jako na Skalce. 🍺

Zároveň se snažím trochu přenastavit hlavu, abych v horších podmínkách fungoval ještě lépe 💪 a dokázal v nich vidět nejen překážky, ale i příležitosti. A poslouchám k tomu Cloud Rap 🌩️

May Divide 2026.
850 kilometrů, 14 000 výškových metrů, 72 hodin a pár minut. Můj první bajkovej ultra závod a zároveň další zkušenost se závodem — tentokrát z pohledu závodníka, ne člověka za foťákem.

Jsem rád, že zase pořádně jezdím na kole. Tenhle závod jsem bral hlavně jako součást přípravy na Silk Road Mountain Race a zároveň jako test, co vydrží hlava, tělo i nová výbava.

První ročník May Divide asi nikdo moc neuměl číst dopředu. A upřímně… ani po dojetí vlastně nevím, jak závod hodnotit. To si asi nechám na jindy.

První etapa byla brutální a zároveň skvělá. Krkonoše, Polsko a návrat východní stranou zpět do ČR. Přes 6000 metrů převýšení na 200 kilometrech. Na tohle jsem byl připravenej z Beskyd i z poslední vyjížďky s Michalem, kdy jsme dali podobný převýšení v ještě horším terénu.

Do Česka jsem se vracel po půlnoci a po asi dvou hodinách spánku pokračoval dál, protože mě probudila zima. Na spaní jen karimatka a alu fólie. Přes den skoro 30 °C, v noci mi Garmin u některých řek ukazoval i -4 °C.

Druhý den přišel zvláštní kontrast. Od České Skalice dál směrem za Třebovou asi 150 kilometrů asfaltu. První den skoro MTB, další den skoro silnice. Trasa mi místy přišla zvláštní a ne úplně dotažená. Můj názor. Vysočina byla o něco lepší.

Večer se dostávám na Hornosvrateckou vrchovinu, dávám asi hodinu spánku, zase mě budí zima. Po půlnoci lehám znovu a před druhou ráno pokračuju dál. Ve tmě se člověk jen pomalu sunul kupředu.

Další den Česká Kanada a Novohradské hory. K večeru jedu tempo hlavně kvůli benzince na hranicích s Rakouskem. Třetí noc už chci jet úplně bez spánku, ale nad ránem končím ve škarpě vedle cesty, protože přichází mikrospánky.

V pondělí ráno Lipno a kus Šumavy. Postupně přichází euforie z dokončení a finální sjezd do Krumlova už je čistá radost.

PS: Díky za občasnou spolujízdu Peterovi, Peťovi a Kubovi. Potkávání podobně naladěných lidí je stejně to hlavní, co mě na tom baví. by @peterkovskey
