We are Laia and Judith Fores, we live in Banyoles, a town in the province of Girona (Catalonia, Spain). This month – June - we will be 16 years. We are twins sisters who love bikes and cycling, but without leaving our school duties aside. Our beginnings in the mountain-bike world started at school. We were 11 years old. Actually, our father had already competed in cycling and our mother and we were used to seeing him in the races. Our parents offered us the possibility of joining the cycling school in our village and so it all began. We really liked pedalling and firstly we went on weekend trips and we had a great time; then we started to compete and we won some races. Slowly, we started to compete in more races and this way we won the Provincial and the Catalonia Championship , and we were always on top of the podium.

We are Laia and Judith Fores, we live in Banyoles, a town in the

province of Girona (Catalonia, Spain). This month – June - we will be 16 years.

We are twins sisters who love bikes and cycling, but without leaving our schoolduties aside.

Our beginnings in the mountain-bike world started at school. We were 11 years

old. Actually, our father had already competed in cycling and our mother and

we were used to seeing him in the races.

Our parents offered us the possibility of joining the cycling school in our village

and so it all began.

We really liked pedalling and firstly we went on weekend trips and we had a

great time; then we started to compete and we won some races. Slowly, we

started to compete in more races and this way we won the Provincial and the

Catalonia Championship, and we were always on top of the podium.

In the picture, we were 12 years.

 At home, we have always lived the races the whole family. We always go

together everywhere and although now our father does not take part in

competitions, he takes care of the mechanics, registrations to the races,

calendars, web-sites… Our mother is the responsible for the logistics,

accommodation and she is the one in charge of the photographies

In 2009 we competed for the club of our village, founded that year by our

father and his friends. The team is the Serinyà – Càrniques Juià.

In 2010 we became cadets and we signed on for a professional team (Conor –

Forallac), the first team of MTB exclusively female in Spain. We travelled around

Spain and we got great results. Judith won the Open d’España , and Laia got the

second place, the same for the Copa Catalana Internacional – GP Massi , we

also won the Championship of Catalonia (Judith first and Laia second). In the

Championship of Spain, Laia was the first runner to cross the finishing line and

Judith competed with knee problems.

The photo is when we were in the team exclusively female in Spain.

We are in love and delighted with these amazing bikes, and it is not our

intention to use a bike with small wheels again, for the time being.

The picture is in Vall de Lord. She is Laia in competition.

This year the races couldn’t be better. We are leaders in the Copa Catalana 

Internacional – GP Massi , in the Open Tàctic and we have the Catalonia and

Spain Championship in 5 weeks, where we expect to get great results.

We would like to thank the store BICI OCI of Salt, their owners and friends –

Narcís and David – for their support and for having given us two NINER AIR 9

CARBON and spare parts to face the season; we also want to thank thedistributor of Barcelona, Top Fun Biking, for the monitoring they do in the

races.

Thanks to our sponsors: Construccions Joan Nicolas, Càrniques Juià, Càrniques

Celrà, INSTALGRUP, Ramaderia Roca, Ajutament de Serinyà and the Cycling

Club of Serinyà.

We must also thank our friends and our coach – Carlos Portilla - for their

support and especially, our parents, Jaume i Rosa; without them this dream

would not have been possible.
