12.17.09 MARCUS TOOKER’S EURO TRIP
Marcus Tooker recently spent a couple of weeks hanging out in Europe. He sent over these photos and a write up about what went down.
After a little time in Rome, I headed down to Sicily and met up with a few friends. There wasn’t too much to ride, so I was back in tourist mode for a few days. The country was awesome, we drove in and out of little medieval towns and bought nice wine, hahaha. After a few days we flew out of the Palermo Airport in Sicily over to Barcelona!! I doubt there’s a kid with a BMX bike that hasn’t heard how awesome Barcelona is to ride. It was nothing short of amazing, and the spots seemed endless. We were on bikes all day just cruising around. We had an idea where some of the famous spots were, but on the way to them we would see 5 others that we recognized. It is seriously an amazing city. We sessioned this one spot for about an hour with a cop just 20 yards away. He didn’t care at all and we didn’t get hassled once the whole time we were in the city.
Barcelona lived up to all the hype and more, I’m already trying to figure out how to get back there. Europe is pretty sweet, lots to see and even more to ride. Definitely an awesome trip I won’t be forgetting about any time soon.
