Water Polo is probably The national sport, but we are good at many other things too.

The national sport in Catalonia is clearly football. But other than your typical sports (basketball, tennis, etc), two are also very popular here:
- rink hockey (or as I call it, the 'Latin' hockey), in which we are a world power alongside Portugal and Argentina,

- motor sports, with worldchampions/great racing figures in GP motorcycling like Àlex Crivillé, Sito Pons, Sete Guibernau, Dani Pedrosa, Marc Márquez, repeated worldchampions in motorcycle trials such as Jordi Tarrés, Adam Raga, Toni Bou and Laia Sanz, or Dakar Rally champions like Marc Coma, Jordi Arcarons, Nani Roma, etc.

Mountain bikers just do a lot of flat road practice here and in the hills of Limburg and for the real thing they seem to go to France.
