We are spanish .. we live in Madrid. I post at rotorburn 'cause I went diving to the great barrier ten years ago and I loved Australia, the country and their people !!
We are learning at La Pinilla Station, a sky resort 100 Km from Madrid that doubles as MTB DH station in summer.

In Spain there are other MTB bike parks at La Molina ( north west, close to Barcelona ), Sierra Nevada ( South ), La Felanosa (center west by the seaside ) and some other smaller bike parks ....
If you want more info let me know and I will help

Why goggles ? I use them to sky as otherwise my eyes water when I descend over 60 Km/h ( may be that happens only at dinosaur age ... ) but with my bike I don't feel I need them .. please help ..
That's why we do it, it's FUN !!!. Thanks for your words ...

I am 42 (for a few days longer) so I am dinosaur age as well!Sadly, the eyes don't work too good once you get to dinasour age.. Goggles is like tryin to see through a fish tank
Just to protect your eyes in case of dirt, crap etc getting in their at speed. I have a scar on my cornea from taking off my glasses to ride at night and something hit my eye (no idea what it was).
Goggles/glasses doesn't really matter - I wear glasses for most riding and goggles for DH. Goggles just stay on better for DH and keep more crap out. To me eye protection is the next thing after a helmet.

Yeh, I'm 43 - meet the dinosaurs!
I could not ride without some sort of eye protection. For DH, these days thats usually sunnies. For road a couple of pairs of replaceable lens sunnies also - for road the eyes dry out too much without good wrap-around lenses. I have not worn goggles for two years now.
