Headed to Portugal

      Today marks my last day in Granada for a few weeks. Although its been great, I can't wait to get over to Portugal and do my first race of the year. I will also be racing in Spain the following weekend. This past week has been a lot of fun with loads of downhill riding and visiting with friends. it was awesome to see my friend Dennis from Sweden over the weekend and have someone to ride with. He is down on the coast now doing some training of his own for the next few weeks. 23 also invited a young spanish kid over for the past two days to hang out and get a chance to ride with me. Although there was a heavy language barrier, we did some quality riding and I think he learned a lot from being around me. It's cool to help out other people when you can. It's been a squeeze to get all the new equipment before I take off tomorrow. This week I had packages from Vans, Kabuto, Leatt and Crank Brothers all turning up for the first race. I am really excited for these first two races, but I know that the important one is still over a month away, so I'm just looking at it as a chance to get on the bike and ease into the season. After today, I have a rest week which has been a long time coming as well, so I will cut back on the work and get ready for a few more hard efforts before I taper for the World Cup. Now that Trek have released the 2011 bikes and gear, I am allowed to post photos of myself riding in the new kit. Check out some of our new stuff below...
