Riding with the big boys!
So I know that I'm behind but I'm skipping up to today for now because I had one of the absolute highlights of the entire trip. My dad and I were out for a ride, just cruising along when we heard some voices behind us and turned back to see a group of pros from both slipstream and high road. As they passed we said hi and then saw them a km or two up the road pulled over to shed some layers and we continued on. About 15 or so minutesw later they came by again but one pulled back next to me and asked "was that english that you were speaking back there" we chatted a little and then he asked IF WE WANTED TO JOIN THEM! So of course we did. The one I had been talking to was Lucas Euser from slipstream so for about 30 km I got to sit on the wheels of a group of pros and chat with lucas about biking, life in europe, that kind of thing. We had to leave them after about 30 km as they headed off on there 6 hour ride and my dad and I headed back to Girona, but it was absolutely amazing. And he gave me his e-mail so I'm hoping to be able to get out for anothe ride with him before we head out! But its was just sooooo cool, I still can't believe it!
