What is the most impressive story that you have ever heard? Ok, now hear this one out! A motorcyclist who crossed 25 countries in 7 months now is sharing the story with you.
This time, we will introduce the story of Jaroslav Šíma, not only a journalist but also an adventurer from the Czech Republic.
Jaroslav Šíma is the man whose goal is to ride a total distance of 2 million kilometers – yes, that’s 2,000,000km.
Since the 1970s, Jaroslav never slowed his pursuit of a long journey. Every year, he spent at least 40000 kilometers on the way. Up to this point, Hitherto has completed roughly 1.65 million kilometers.
“I spent almost all the money I earned in purchasing gasoline. If I have nowhere to be accommodated, I will pitch a small tent next to my motorcycle for a short rest before heading out again,” said Jaroslav.
It has been a long time since Jaroslav shared his life with CFMOTO. It is a big honor for CFMOTO to have such a loyal friend.
Jaroslav has already rid more than 60,000 kilometers on CFMOTO motorcycles. He made his first journey on CFMOTO 650GT from the Czech Republic to Macedonia for 7000 kilometers; Afterwards, he made another trip with the same model from Croatia to Slovenia for 3500 kilometers; He also rode CFMOTO’s 300NK for 24 hours to reach the apogee of Slezska at an altitude of 1500 meters. During the 800MT long-distance journey, Jaroslav also has a couple who joined him on the motorcycle tour with 650GT.
800MT is the first model offered by CFMOTO for Jaroslav’s long-term testing, and we hope there is more to come. The goal of the first phase for Jaroslav is to conduct a 50,000-kilometer riding test; from July to November 2021, Jaroslav has traveled for more than 31,500 kilometers, crossing 21 European countries (Czech → Austria → Slovakia → Poland → Lithuania → Latvia → Estonia → Slovenia → Hungary → Romania → Bulgaria → Greece → Albania → Macedonia → Kosovo → Montenegro → Serbia → Bosnia and Herzegovina → Croatia → Italy → Germany → France → Spain…).
This is still just the beginning of Jaroslav’s 800MT testing story, and his journey is still ongoing. We are delighted to have a royal friend like him, and we will be proud to contribute to Jaroslav’s riding dream (2 million kilometers).
