woody Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 juan and david are brothers 98% sure make that 100% Juan is the older brother. Both brilliant riders and all rounders. Juan also has a liking for classic trials bikes and can ride those a bit too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubby Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 Definitely brothers...and nice blokes as well. I've been riding Trials with them since we were kids and we have had great days out. As a youth trials rider Juan was competitive against the likes of Graham Jarvis I think, who is a similar age. Both have been travelling off the Island since a young age to ride in National events, but I think this one of the reasons Juan has knocked it on the head. 3 or 4 hours each way on the boat each weekend gets a little tedious. How do you guys in the US pronounce his christian name? The correct pronunciation is like 'Jewan'. The commentator on coverage of last years Weston Beach race was using the spanish pronunciation, which was quite amusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were Juan, I'd curse my parents for the Spanish pronounciation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtt Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 I've only ever heard the Spanish pronounciation (Waan). Didn't even know there was another....see how educational it is hanging out here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
