Girona Gala for Qhubeka: Kittel, Hesjedal, Dennis and friends
Marcel Kittel, Rohan Dennis, Ryder Hesjedal and Nathan Haas joined guests at the third Girona Gala, raising over £10,000 for Qhubeka bicycle charity.
For the third year, the Girona Gala proved to be a star-studded occasion and a terrific night for a great cause, raising over £10,000 for Qhubeka, helping to change lives in Africa via the wonderful medium of the bicycle.
Marcel Kittel, Rohan Dennis, Ashleigh Moolman-Pasio, Ryder Hesjedal and a host of pro riders joined the guests and our host Nathan Haas in the rather swish Girona Casino for an evening of eating, drinking, dancing and – of course – bidding on the amazing auction items, including a Katusha team-issue Canyon.

A day in a Team Katusha team car? Marcel fancies that one… (he didn’t win it)
OK, clear the tables. Let’s zumba!
Yes, there was some (responsible) drinking involved… Hannes Obreno, Lauren Rowney and Molly Weaver lead the line
Organiser and all-round good egg Laura Fletcher takes a well-earned sip at the end of the evening. Ryder approves. Nathan is, er, happy.
