Hello to all vintage moto cross fans.
CZ hero Jaroslav Falta turns 60 on 23-03-2011.
I have been to Czech last year and met Falta.
I spent 2 days with him and it was then, I have realized, we need to do something for him.
In his successful racing days financial rewards went to the socialistic government and not to him.
My intention is to raise the money and present him with a large sum from us, around the world, that he deserved but never received back then.
All vintage motocross enthusiasts will have the opportunity to buy one of the limited number of commemorative T-shirts with signature and doing so will contribute to the gift to be given at the party to be held at "KONOPISTE CHATEAU" (google it) in Czech Republic on 18th of June 2011.
If by chance you are planning a European trip, you may like to include this event in your itinerary.
You would be most welcome.
All the Czech legends will be there and some past world champions have expressed interest as well.
There is a trust fund set up to allow you to contribute to the fund or to order your commemorative T-shirt.
Please contact me at: [email protected] or phone me on my mobile phone: 041 289 3693
Thank you all in advance for your contribution.
Cheers, Peter Heles

I caught up with CZPete and Eve at HBBB and some of us may not be aware that those who won World Title events back in the day never got to keep there prize money or status of such an event. :(
Pete and Eve have worked hard to reward one of our unrecognized Legends in his own country, with a really cool shirt from Siege design in the USA.
When we reach home West Aust,I will post up the shirt design so you can all go "gaga" over it and perhaps order the 100 only limited addition for our CZ Fatla vmx Legend.. 8)
