Hi,
I am Spanish and I do MTB , I have only bought a roadbike because one of my Spanish friends convinced me to do half ironman...right now I do not think I could do an eight of an ironman bc i have not been training for 3 months...but if you are sportive i'd love to go out on MTB as well. I will soon be organized in Berlin (I hope, meaning having a flat to live , a station wagon car and my 3 bikes with me)... then I am happy to get dirt, snow or whatever...
Adrian
