Fair play for pretty much checking Laurence was ok before anything else 👍🏻 hope the bike was ok. Apart from the little mishap Girona is definitely on the bucket list.

So glad you guys are alright. I must have PTSD or something. Seeing you go down is like watching a close friend crash…it really got me. I’m 5 weeks out from my first crash after two years of cycling. I healing from a broken clavicle, six broken ribs, and a broken vertebrae. I have a long way to go, but i’m doing well. But I’ll tell you seeing a crash affects me very differently now than it did when watching videos. Sooooo very glad you guys are alright. Watching your vids has gotten me from not being able to move to going back to work tomorrow. Blessings from Texas and thanks for the inspiration. Been riding through you guys!
