September was crazy at the beginning and the weather did its thing to our calendar. But it's nothing compared to the disaster that affected many people all over the Czech Republic and unfortunately we didn't escape the water either (although only in a small way). Of course, all events planned for the flood period were canceled and some others were in the reservation phase due to the cleanup of the consequences.
At the beginning of the rains, we only managed to attend a company event for the manufacturer of fire and rescue vehicles, the company THT.cz. The event was covered, so there was no problem and we managed to include a fire truck trailer in the event, which they slightly modified for us. Vlasta was unable to participate due to a sprained ankle, but a little luck and colleague Martin Šimůnek got him out of the pain.
This last weekend, when we had perhaps managed to ward off/survive the worst, we held an exhibition for the guys from the Olympic Committee and the partner of our Olympians - the manufacturer of TOYOTA vehicles in Kolín, right in the area. Unfortunately, the grassy area was still a bit wet and the exhibition had to be set up so that the riders rode on the ground as little as possible. So we connected the stage to our obstacles and tow. Our trial babe Marty Kabeláč took over the ground, who showed adults and children what a 7-year-old capart can do. Martin Šimůnek and Vlasta Kabeláč Čiháček then went wild in two entries on the obstacles. In Martin's case, you could say that they were breaking chains, because that's exactly what he did when jumping from obstacle to obstacle. Fortunately, nothing was broken and by some miracle he was able to leave and moderate the entry. During the second entry, the area in front of the obstacles also dried up a bit and we could compete with the spectators in jumping the ribbon. The trial part was part of the mini Olympic village, where the competition took place as part of the sports day. Thanks for the invitation.
Immediately after the second entry in Toyota, we went to two more exhibitions in Zákup, where a company event for employees was also held. A smaller event, where Martin's sparring partner Mirek Brunclík was already waiting for us with a workshop. Martin repaired the bike, but Márty Kabeláč got a little dirty on the concrete, who sat with ice cream at the obstacles after the treatment and kept his fingers crossed for us. The two entries with the competition for volunteers dragged on a bit and the jump over the tape at about 125-130 cm was a bit heated.
