A guest appearance in the Bike Bike Natural team for the two day, 3 stage road race in Gran Canaria.
The race had not been staged for ten years and the last winner was the at the race last weekend and he was not far way from winning nearly.....well done Adriano.
Well done to the winner this year Kiko Alvarez...he is only 42 years old!

For me, the race was a learning race. I was on rental bike and was starting to get used to it and road racing in the last hour of racing.

Many thanks to Miguel Vera for taking total care of me for the whole weekend. During the race.....many thanks go to Jesús and son Alejandro for doing the race support in the caravan. Special thanks go to Jonay for teaching about road racing.
Well done to Nestor for getting on the podium in the masters.

I ended up 3rd in the last stage and 8th overall and no scrathes.
