Personal History
I'm a 31 year old with a beautiful wife and daughter! Being a dad and husband is my favorite!
Before my daughter was born I was already a big guy and after she arrived I was the biggest I had ever been at 312lbs. That was Jan. 20th, I told myself I had to lose weight and if doing it for myself and for my daughter wasn't enough, I added something extra with a deal to myself if I lost 100lbs in 2022 I would buy a dirt bike and pursue racing motocross. I've never raced motocross, in fact never even rode motocross at that point, however I've always been a fan and wanted to. Mostly some trail riding and lots of four wheeler and sidexside riding in the sand dunes is my riding history. I hit my 100lbs down Dec. 5th of 212lbs and went and found a bike the next week. I continued pushing to lose weight and am now staying about 185-190lbs.
Motocross has been awesome training for. I enjoy the off the bike training more than most I expect because it's not just for motocross but I never want to get big like I was again and this training won't let that happen! I don't get much practice/training done on the bike so I have always told myself that my off the bike training has to be 100% and if nothing else I want to be the guy who has the energy on the last lap. Gritty battling to the last lap rides have become my thing! I love racing and am now absolutely addicted! I'm attacking it with the same energy and mindset I tackled my weight loss, except this is way more fun!
Riding Goals
Racing is pure joy and an intoxicating high! It's hard and not for the faint of heart and that makes the success that much more awesome! I love it!!
2024 Plan!
All go-
Johnsonville Winter Jackpot 4 rounds- Goal is for top 3 on the season and maybe a win in there in Beginner class. In 30+c/d the goal is for top 5 with atleast 2 podiums in there.
Johnsonville MotoMasters 9 rounds- Beginner class goal is to win it all, only goal I could have after 2nd this year. 30+c/d goal is to be top 3 on the year, with hopefully a win and mutiple podiums mixed in. I would also like to do a 3rd class atleast on tracks/days I'm feeling it in the 25+c/d and pulloff a couple top 5 races. Texas D41 state Championship 5 rounds- will race 25+ amateur and 30+c/d with the goals to stay inside the top 5 and qualify for state in both.
Possible go-
2-3 Loretta qualifiers Swan MX Lone Star Day rounds mixed in on free weekends.
2024 will also see me launching my own riding/workout instagram. I've already started the page with username czach210. I plan to post reels and make race recap posts weekly as well as post about my off the bike training weekly.
2025 Plan-
Will look similiar series wise with my two classes I'll race being 30+c/d and 25+ amateur or c/d.
Competitive Highlights
Texas Winter Series by Freestone Jan 1-Feb 18 5rds, missed one round.
Beginner open class-16th 30+c/d-13th
Johnsonville MotoMaster Vet series. 10rds missed 1 round. March 4th-October 14t
Beginner open class-2nd overall. Went from 8-12th place guy first couple rounds to progressively getting better and ending the season last 3 races with 2-2nds and a win.
30+c/d class-5th overall. Started out 15-18th place guy, progress showed less here but moved up to 8-5th place guy last few rounds. A lot of growth this year I believe is due to racing these guys.
All gains and success accomplished this year were done with 0 sponsorship and less than ideal amount of training on the bike done between races. I hope this year to be able to afford the opportunity to get with local training available like Scotty Wennerstrom or MX University out of Swan MX. I've used Scotty already and greatly enjoyed my time greatly with him, unfortunately during supercross season it's hard for our schedules to line up. I will most likely use MX University during supercross season.
