PIECE OF KICK
Piece of cake.
My aim was to just do it for 15 days
and as a hobby rider basically just to explore the desert with the bike and so
but soon it became addiction
and I raced my first ever race in 2000
yeah basically I was hooked after that race
even though my first race ever I went immediately to the hospital
I broke my arm, we did the operation
and that was not a good experience but somehow I was hooked
I was really hooked that day
they asked me what I want to do with this, where I see myself
and I said yeah I want to be one day
at that time you know I was still young and stuff
and I said yeah I want to be the best at it
I want to achieve world championship myself
and they somehow laughed at me
if I want something I do it, I get it
you know this is who I am from when I was a kid
so what I did after within three years
I won double title in Mordekos in Dubai
and from there I never looked back
the jumps are okay also
a little bit distingy on the landing
it's this much landing
for me I train only the close people to me
one of the people I train is Saeed
and then in the Arab championship he won his class to 50 class
I train Mohammed Jafar
he's like last year he won the Emirates Motorplex to 50 championship
so it's good, you know when you train somebody and they win
you feel like you did it
okay guys I think we're done for the day so let's wrap
I remember I was still working at that company
and then I had my first ever break
I had to choose basically still work
or should I take this risk
because I have to leave work basically
you know and for me I was already married
I had Mariam my daughter
financially I wasn't set
you know I risk a lot because I'm the man of the house
I have to provide
I just took that chance man
I never regretted yeah we went through rough patches in the beginning
because it made me the man who I am today
what I do I used to do it for me for my passion
but soon I realized it's actually also for them
you know our sport is quite risky you risk a lot
because for me I have to every ride
I love to come home and see these people
they've seen me only on TV and stuff
but not even my best friend
I feel too much pressure
and then I know these are the genuine people
if I go down they will be hurt emotionally
because they love me
it's a great thing
we were here for more than 20 years
more than 25 years
more than 25 years
we were 6 weeks old
he was captain of the team with football
he was a champion
he was young and he had a lot of sports
we played football and he had a lot of sports
and I really expected to have a good future
but from the beginning of my life I didn't go to any sport
the sport is risky
so I don't want to lose a lot of weight
I want to lose a lot of weight
but Masha'a Allah
may Allah protect me
till now Masha'a Allah
we will continue
I hope we will continue
and see the world champion
Masha'a Allah
Masha'a Allah
Masha'a Allah
Masha'a Allah
nice
nice
for sure we are watching it again
it's good
it's good
I feel like a kid
I was like
I really cannot express myself
how much I love Dubai
I wish if I wasn't from Dubai
and say good things about Dubai
and that I think
to compliment Dubai
and to be fair
to come together all seven different Emirates
and form a country
and be united
to be united
even within the family
that's your strength
wherever I go
around the world
proudly I say
I'm from UAE
United Arab Emirates
I feel pride in that
I think what Muhammad's done
for Mardukros
in the Arab world is huge
there's very few guys out there
that are committed as he is
and
to give you a story about this commitment
in the UAE in the middle of summer
it gets to like
45-50 degrees
and
obviously during that time
these guys have the month of Ramadan
where they're forced
and we're going to do two-three motors
in 45 degrees
pouring out sweat
and this guy will not drink a drop
and that I just don't understand
I managed it
but anyway he does it
so if that's not commitment
then it's time
when I came here a long time ago
I first met
Muhammad on the track
and immediately
I saw him riding
and I knew we had a lot of
potential, a lot of possibilities
and by the same time
I discovered a really good man
a rider needs to be
also a strong man
and I felt immediately
from Muhammad something that he was
honest, straight
and he really do
his best
because of that I won nine
UAE titles, UAE based titles
there are two Arabs
at least two GCC level
to win is you get different high
you know you feel
special
the drive is still in me
you
