page 8 2014 Exclusive tour of Jordi Tarres' first home
Fransesc told me that him and Jordi used to spend hours and hours down here in the workshop adjusting and tinkering on bikes. It was here than Fransesc kept his own trials bikes as well.
Neither Jordi or Fransesc have forgotten what they have down here ,its just that they dont need it and so use the area as storage. It makes sense ,especially as they are both one hundred yards away.
Is there any thing else you recognise ? There might be . The clues are there. Only the craziest retro fan will see it :)
what is this ?
have you worked it out yet ?. Tommi Ahvala will remember this :)
Hmmmmmm What is this ?. Get your brains working guys and gals :)
This is what it is
The red bag contains the huge Jordi Doll and the canister is used to blow it up . This doll was made famous at the many Arena trials . When Jordi walked out in front of the audience at the start of the event and also if he won the event, the doll would be inflated. The strobe lights would flash , coloured spot lights would shoot about the room , the foil confetti would be shot up into the air and the music would thump with the lastest techno tune . Great days :)
This photo from Fransesc shows Pol and Jordi's mother Pachita proudly displaying it.

On my next trip we will get the Jordi doll out of the bag. Pol and Jordi will be pulling wheelies on Retro bikes and the hand of the famous Jordi doll will once again be waving in Rellinars :)
