The mountain bike athlete Dinh Van Linh – a
hope for high achievement sports of the province.
Born in 1996, Dinh Van Linh came to the sport
of cycling with all his efforts to self- training.
In 2011, for the first time, Linh had the
chance to compete and take part in the "National Championships ò Junior
Mountainous Cycling" in Binh Duong Province. Although he could only get
the bronze price, it also the
encouragement and promotion for him to take more efforts in training. Linh
shared: The biggest motivation to mention is my family, the birthplace where I
was born and grew up was extremely difficult and my family is no exception, it
is the poor countryside of Ghe 2 Village, Lung Van commune (Tan Lac). In 1998,
when I was 2 years old, my first incident in my life was that I was
unfortunately severely burned. The health treatment cost was too high compared
to the family’s affordability, my parents had to sell everything in the house
to have enough money to take me to the hospital. When I came back, there was no
rice for us to eat. Our family’s life was so hard so I had to live well for my
family to be happy, to compensate for the shortcomings. The second motivation
is my selfish characteristic(laughing), so while practicing I can not bear
seeing someone better than me, then I must try my best. Trying to be
self-respecting regardless of playing any sport, I also want to confirm to
everyone that I am the No. 1.
Cycling requires tough and persistent
fitness, so every day regardless of rainy or sunny weather, I always spend 5
hours practicing. Dinh Vinh Linh said: Patience, persistence of training has
helped me to have a good strength, enough to overcome other opponents in the
big competitions. In addition, during the training, I have the spirit of
learning and studying from friends, as well as accumulating experience to
maximize the competence, strength and overcome my weakness.
Our province is ideally located to develop
the cycling sport. But there are also many difficulties in developing this
powerful sport. Training equipment can not be as the same team as Hanoi, the
Army or An Giang. The policies of salaries and bonuses are low, not enough to
"keep" the talented athletes.For many times, I have wanted to find a
more suitable place to develop all of my abilities but there are still many
things here that I cannot leave to go far away. One of these reasons is that I
want to confirm the position of the provincial sport. Dinh Van Linh is very
honored to become one of the athletes of the Hoa Binh Sports Club dressing the
national team’s uniform to devote himself to the sport of Vietnamese
