Yeah they're Spanish, just don't shout that too loud in a bar in Vitoria-Gasteiz. |

I just wonder if Spain doesn't have many more riders than other countries. Loads more, fantastic riders are a dime a dozen in Spain, since the crisis began it's tough getting into a Spanish team for the Spanish, there's so much competition and fewer teams/races so they end up in other nations teams. I'm in Almeria and cycling around in the mountains round here I routinely get overtaken by riders who can get out of the saddle and semi-sprint for a couple of miles up 8% gradients. There are hundreds of riders out every day and at the week end you're in serious danger of colliding with the packs of them that swarm all over the road. There are signs every couple of miles warning car drivers that they are on a "carretera frequentada por ciclistas". The roads are great too, paradise really except that cycling up to Calar Alto through the Desierto Almeriense yesterday my Garmin was showing 42 degrees with a wind straight out of a blast furnace, serious tachycardia conditions if you don't keep well hydrated. |
