you know the riders im talking about, but it seems that the Spanish are taking over the world in motogp, moto 2&3, with the Italians not far behind..these countries are obsessed with bikes....kids whizz around on scooters straight from the womb..i wonder if we're entering a new era of Spain commanding all levels of the sport? Just a thought.
Just go to any track in spain at the weekend and watch the schools they run. Its like football club for under 10s except they have leathers, a lid and non studded boots and knock about on mii bikes
Quite simply they have the best youth riding schemes bringing on talented young racers. Funnily enough Redding, Smith and Webb all went to Spain to race...Lo and behold they're top flight racers now. Someone in England will work this out sooner or later...
