I met Max in Bishkek in 2019 for his ever first bikepacking race. As that race was my first race as well. We had a short ride uphill in the outskirt of Bishkek together that day. In two weeks we met again at the finish line in Cholpon -Ata town celebrating our complete ride.
This time I met Max after he finished 9th position at Silk Road Mountain Race 2021. - Malik Alymkulov
