Jana Horáková

Jana Horáková, born on 4 September 1983 in Prostejov, is a Czech professional BMX cyclist. Having started BMX racing at fifteen, she has claimed numerous Czech national titles, eight European championship titles across the under-12, junior and elite categories, and two bronze medals in the women's elite category at the UCI World Championships, in 2002 and 2007. She represented the Czech Republic at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing as the lone female rider on the Czech squad, earning an automatic berth from the Czech Cycling Union on her top-ten place in the UCI BMX World Rankings. She raced professionally for most of her career on the Suzuki-RB Team and signed an exclusive three-year sponsorship contract with Duratec in 2010. After a positive test for clenbuterol in 2011 during fourcross mountain biking, the UCI suspended her for two years in June 2012, which excluded her from the London Olympics.
