Dan’s Blog – Pre-Season Training & Testing in Spain

Hi everyone,

I went out to Spain on the 23rd of February for a weekend with Circuit Moto. I did this to improve my riding to another step, in the hope I can have a strong 2018 season. I felt like it worked, I still have plenty to work on but the foundation for a big step is there!

After that weekend at Circuit De La Ribera, I stayed for another week to carry on applying what I had learned. I rode the Husqvarna 450, Moriwaki 250 and NSF 100! I had a lot of fun during this week, even though the weather wasn’t the best.

After this we went to the Finestrat trip with Kirk Blacklock, I had a lot of fun meeting people and having a laugh with old friends! I spent 3 days riding the CRF150 and the NSF100, thankfully the weather was better so I managed to really apply what I had worked on!

For the final 2 days we travelled back up to Circuit De La Ribera, I had another two days on the Husqvarna 450. I really enjoyed these two days, I relaxed and enjoyed riding to the maximum.

I just want to thank everyone who made the trip possible, I’ve had the best off season in my career so hopefully I can take that through in to my Red Bull MotoGP Rookies test at Jerez.

See you all soon,
Dan
