Hi! My name is Jan Prokop. I am 21 years old and I come from Czech Republic (Central Europe). I study Building structures on Czech Technical University (ČVUT). My hobbies are motorbikes, travelling, taking photos… I decided to create this website to publish and share my photos and reports from my roadtrips with you. I hope that you will like it and enjoy it!
I've been riding fourth season now. It doesn't seem so long to me:) My first bike was red Suzuki GS 500E (98). I had it for a year. Then I sold the GS and bought the silver Suzuki SV650S. I spent two years on it. It was a great bike, but I felt that it is not exactly my cup of tea. SV ensured me that next bike has to be some touring enduro or something like that. So that's the reason why I enjoy roads and landscapes on my BMW R 1150 GS now. It is my dream bike and I don't think that I will ever change it. BMW really brings the joy of riding, I must say. You can see some pictures of my bikes on the bottom of this page.
I hope that the pictures, short videos and also my blog entries will help you to feel the same atmosphere that I felt on the road. So enjoy it;)
