Tour de Bilbao


Hello, I´m Sergio and I´m going to talk about an impressive cycling race in Bilbao, on the north coast of Spain. This race is so impressive because more than 6000 people take part every year.

Last year I took part in it with my father and some of his friends, but this year I will do it with all my cycling team mates so it will be fantastic. During the race you can see people of all kinds and from all kinds of places. Last year I met an American guy that told me he has been taking part for the last 11 years. But the person who impressed me most was an 87 year old father and his son who only had one leg! Also if you are lucky you can see some professional cyclists like Samuel Sanchez or Miguel Indurain. If you like bikes you also can see a display of some famous brands during the previous and the following days.

The race is not very hard so most people can finish it, also in the middle of the race there is a huge area to get as much energetic food and drink as you want, because you need to eat something to finish it alive. When you finish, the organization gives you a free ticket to have a look at the Guggenheim museum.

The only nightmare is to finish the 120 kilometres long race.

Would you like to take part in it?

it sounds fun, but we have to practise first.
