    Rach and Pete do the GP @ Valencia

    Ok guys and girls...I'll try and keep it short. I've been to lots of GP's over the years, but Valencia must rate as one of, if not the best ever. Reason? The chicks in Spain!!!

    The track is pretty cool to spectate at too. Rach and I could see the whole track from our seats, bar the last corner coming out on to the front straight. So it's pretty cool to be able to watch the racers fighting it out over the whole track. The weather was fantastic, but the fuckers only sell low and no alcohol beer. Poos to that. Nearly no one there speaks English, and you'll need cash for food/drinks etc, as those stalls don't use cards etc. Rach and I got on just fine though, and we didn't learn any Spanish. Pretty easy to point to things after all!

    The racing in all of the classes was great, and the Spaniards are crazy for their racing, so the atmosphere was unreal! Here are a few picks for ya...chicks first.

    The track etc

    There's a huge stepped terrace behind the main grandstand, that still offered great views of the whole track, and it was pretty near full come race day. Excuse my photography (or lack thereof) skills...

    As you can see, the day started out a pearler!
    And the airline that has Lorenzo as the 'face' did a low level fly over with a plane complete with a picture on it of Lorenzo which I think was pretty cool!

    Its true...where is that smoking babe we found in the city centre of valencia?? We were trying so hard to get a good photo but she noticed us staring at her and gave us a few looks haha


    Man the pictures you put of me are terrible

    But its was fucking incredible


    I have another observation as well....chics in the south of spain aren´t nearly as slim and smoking as the ones north! Maybe the french have an effect further north?
