Jiří Stodůlka

Jiří Stodůlka is a Czech former motocross and enduro racer, born on 3 November 1948, who rode for the ČZ factory team and belonged with Vlastimil Válek, Jaromír Čížek and Jaroslav Falta to the most accomplished Czech motocross riders of the early 1970s. He won the 250 cc Czech national championship in 1968 and the 500 cc national title in 1972, and he scored his first world championship points that year at the Czech Grand Prix at Holice. His best season came in 1969, when he finished fourth in the 250 cc world championship behind Joël Robert, Sylvain Geboers and Olle Pettersson. He won one Grand Prix, the 1973 500 cc Austrian Grand Prix, after most western riders boycotted the snowy race. From 1974 he concentrated on enduro, winning two European Enduro Championships and taking part in three Czech team victories at the International Six Days Enduro. Later he coached riders at the Dukla Mošnov sports club.
