We went to Spain!  It was in a word, amazing,  I feel lucky to be able to travel with great friends and race in epic events.   The RHC Barcelona was a great race, however all of these photos are from the 5 days we spent in Barcelona before the race.  My camera died as the first qualifiers went off.  So no race pics and thankfully no pictures of Crihs, Juan and Mine's trip to Ibiza right after the race.

the trip was out of this world, but the thing that really impresses me is the community of racers that travel to these events.  I am privileged to call these fine people my friends, my team, and my competition.
 
a huge thanks to Dosnoventa, these guys opened their homes and their shop to all of us, treated us like family.  Solid crew of dudes!!
 
 
till next time!! rubber side down
