Max’s biggest career achievements include finishing 3rd at the UCI Junior World Championships, earning several UCI National Championship titles, and taking 2nd place at a UCI World Cup.
Off the bike, he enjoys fishing, riding motocross, and spending time with friends and family. His favourite place to ride is Bikepark Klínovec in the Czech Republic, thanks to its long, rough, natural tracks that are perfect for training, testing, and simply having a good time on the bike. Max’s future goals are to stay healthy, become a fast and consistent rider, and enjoy every moment spent travelling and racing bikes around the world.
