Understanding the speed of MotoGP with Adam Wheeler
MotoGP is a mainstream championship in Spain and in many other countries in the world. Books on the series have explored the history, the icons, the technology but not many have taken the fan or follower directly into the paddock and all the personalities, engineering and psychology that goes with a motorcycle sport pushing at 225mph.
Author **Adam Wheeler** will chat about how and why he wanted to present this enthralling spectacle to wider consciousness with some other journalists.
**[ORDER THE BOOK HERE](https://backstorybookshop.shop/product/motorcycle-grand-prix/)**
## About the speaker:
**Adam Wheeler** is an award-winning journalist who contributes to the Telegraph, edits and owns On-Track Off-Road magazine, and is part of the Paddock Pass Podcast team. He has been working in and around MotoGP for over twenty years. He lives in Barcelona.
## About the book:
***Motorcycle Grand Prix*** takes readers inside the 75-year-old FIM World Championship — not through race results and lap times, but through the human stories behind them. Each chapter tackles a separate subject, moving from riders and team managers to mechanics, doctors, physiotherapists and engineers, stitching individual perspectives into a bigger picture of what it actually takes to compete at this level.
Drawing on exclusive interviews with Pecco Bagnaia, Jorge Martín, Brad Binder and Jack Miller, as well as reflections on Valentino Rossi, Marc Márquez and Cal Crutchlow, Wheeler goes well beyond the paddock gossip. The book covers talent, obsession, injury, and the extraordinary technical arms race between manufacturers — with none of the glamour and all of the reality.
Meditación Budista guiada
¿Qué hacemos?
A las 20:00h tenemos una meditación budista guiada. La meditación tiene una duración de unos 25 minutos y es accesible y beneficiosa para personas de todos los niveles de experiencia.
¡AVISO! Si es tu primer dia te esperamos 10 minutos antes. ¡Estaremos encatados de recibirte!
¿Qué es el Camino del Diamante?
El Buda dio instrucciones a tres clases de personas. Las primeras que deseaban evitar el sufrimiento recibieron las enseñanzas sobre Causa y Efecto, llamadas Camino Angosto (Hinayana). El segundo tipo de personas sentía la necesidad de beneficiar a los demás, por lo que les dio enseñanzas sobre compasión y sabiduría, llamadas Gran Camino (Mahayana). Finalmente a las personas que tenían una confianza sólida en su propio potencial y en de los demás, el Buda explicó enseñanzas del Camino del Diamante (Vajrayana). En este último nivel utilizamos métodos de identificación con la meta y actuamos como un Buda hasta que llegamos a ser como él. En el nivel más elevado, la meta, es el completo desarrollo de la mente, a lo cual denominó el Gran Sello (Mahamudra).
¿Quiénes somos?
El Centro Budista Camino del Diamante de Barcelona forma parte de los más de 700 centros de meditación a nivel internacional de la tradición Karma Kagyu del Budismo Tibetano. Estos centros han sido fundados y guiados por Lama Ole Nydahl y su esposa Hannah Nydahl, de acuerdo con los deseos de H. H. XVI Karmapa. Ahora están bajo la guía espiritual de H.H. XVII Gyalwa Karmapa, Trinley Thaye Dorje.
Nuestro centro está formado por personas que tienen sus propios trabajos e incorporan las enseñanzas y las meditaciones del Camino del Diamante en sus vidas cotidianas. Nuestros miembros comparten la responsabilidad de guiar meditaciones, contestar preguntas y dar explicaciones sobre budismo.
Nuestro trabajo no es remunerado y se basa en el idealismo y la amistad. Realizamos noches semanales de meditación, que están abiertas al público y son gratuitas. Hay un ambiente social relajado y se animan las preguntas.
Las meditaciones son guiadas en castellano, permitiendo que el espacio, la claridad y la alegría surjan naturalmente. Otras actividades incluyen charlas, enseñanzas y práctica personal.

Barcelona: Speakeasy Explore Hidden Bars with Optional Tapas
Uncover Barcelona’s hidden speakeasies & secret bars while optional (20€ extra for charcuterie tapas board and 3 drinks) tapas, stories, and cocktails in an unforgettable evening of culture and taste.
## Highlights
* Discover hidden speakeasy bars tucked away in Barcelona’s streets
* Learn about Catalan culture, cuisine, and nightlife history from a local guide
* Enjoy classic drinks including Spanish wines, cava, sangria, and vermouth

## Full description
Barcelona is a city full of secrets, hidden doors, unmarked alleys, and stories that only locals know. Behind some of these doors lie speakeasies and creative cocktail bars that blend history, culture, and innovation. On this exclusive evening experience, you’ll step into the world of Barcelona’s hidden nightlife, guided by a local insider who knows exactly where to look.
This is not your typical bar crawl. Instead, it’s a carefully curated journey into the city’s most unique speakeasies and stylish hidden bars. Each stop has a story to tell—whether it’s a bar tucked behind an unmarked entrance, a venue styled after the prohibition era, or a creative lounge where mixology is treated like art.
You’ll enjoy a selection of delicious optional (20€ extra for charcuterie tapas board and 3 drinks) tapas, pairing Barcelona’s culinary traditions with its vibrant drinking culture. From classic Catalan bites to modern twists, these small plates are the perfect way to experience local flavors.
Your guide will reveal the fascinating history of speakeasies, the influence of prohibition culture, and the way Barcelona has reimagined it with its own creative flair. You’ll learn how these secret spots became part of the city’s nightlife identity and why locals love them.
By the end of the evening, you won’t just have visited hidden bars—you’ll have experienced a side of Barcelona that few travelers ever see. This is a night of discovery, taste, and connection, ideal for curious travelers, foodies (20€ extra for charcuterie tapas board and 3 drinks), and anyone seeking something beyond the ordinary.
## Includes
Optional (20€ extra for charcuterie tapas board and 3 drinks) charcuterie board of tapas at the first bar and drinks available on a pay-as-you-go basis (Spanish beer, wine, sangria or vermouth).
The tour is pay as you go as you discover more surprises and hidden gems!

ENGLISH! WEDNESDAY / The Central House - Philosophy Meetup: 19:30h - 21h
Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup!
Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue?
If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you.
• WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT?
At every meetup we have a discussion using Socratic method:
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method)
We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts.
The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives.
Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others.
A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning.
• WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP?
Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view.
Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups:
* What ideals are worth dying for?
* Why are we never satisfied?
* Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is?
* Is identity necessary?
* How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others)
* What is friendship?
• WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP?
Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory.
Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue.
The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

Mercè Rodoreda Book Club Series: Session 5 — Final Discussion
As part of our **Mercè Rodoreda Book Club Series (January–May)**, we invite you to join us for a special **closing session** dedicated to *Journeys and Flowers* (*Viatges i flors*) and to celebrating the reading journey we have shared over the past months.
Originally, this final session was due to feature translator **Nick Caistor**, who unfortunately can no longer join us due to a scheduled medical operation. We send him our warmest wishes for a smooth recovery.
Rather than cancel our final gathering, we wanted to embrace the spirit that has made this series so meaningful: readers coming together in conversation.
This session will take on a more open **book club format**, where all attendees are warmly invited to participate, reflect, and share.
Together we will discuss:
🌿 *Journeys and Flowers* — one of Rodoreda’s most imaginative and singular works
🌿 Favourite books and moments from the series
🌿 How reading Rodoreda in community has shaped the experience
🌿 The legacy and literary world of one of Catalonia’s most beloved writers
Whether you joined us for one session or many, we would love to welcome you for this final conversation.

Climate Action Book Club: It’s Not That Radical by Mikaela Loach
The climate emergency will not be solved by reading books. But by coming together to read, to educate ourselves, to share what we learn with friends and family, and to take action in our corner of the world we can be a small part of the wave of change humanity desperately needs. Sound like something you want to be a part of? We’d love to have you.
Join the Climate Action Book Club this month to read It’s Not That Radical by Mikaela Loach, the young Jamaica-born British activist and author. She’s an infectious and inspiring voice who will get you excited to take action.
This event is free, but please get your copy from the wonderful English bookstore that hosts our book club meetings, Backstory. To cover Meetup fees, we also request a €1 donation per attendee.
You are welcome (even encouraged) to join us even if you haven't read the book but want to hear and join the discussion about it. Feel free to bring a friend, too. Hope to see you!
RUTA: LA REPÚBLICA Y LA GUERRA CIVIL EN BARCELONA
Hola a tod@s, Soy Miguel, Doctor en Historia Contemporánea y animador de este grupo de meet up.
En esta ocasión os invito a encontrarnos para realizar la ruta dedicada a La II REPÚBLICA Y LA GUERRA CIVIL EN BARCELONA.
Esta es la segunda de las rutas de la trilogía dedicada a la historia social de Barcelona en el siglo XX. Los que ya me conocéis sabéis que es uno de los temas que más me apasiona y he trabajado sobre ello publicando varios artículos y un libro.
En esta ruta intentaré transmitiros todo lo que he aprendido mientras recorremos juntos los escenarios de los episodios más apasionantes de la historia de la II República y la Guerra Civil.
Entre otras cosas nos sorprenderemos descubriendo los paralelismos con los tiempos recientes, conociendo qué ocurrió en el pasado cuando Cataluña se proclamó República (en 1931 y en 1934) y veremos cual fue la reacción del gobierno español.
Conoceremos de cerca las huellas que dejó la revolución social de 1936 en Barcelona, así como las cicatrices que aún perduran en la ciudad fruto de los bombardeos durante la guerra. Eso y mucho más.
Os agradezco el compromiso de acudir si os apuntáis y de borraros de la lista si finalmente no podéis venir.
¡Muchas gracias de antemano a tod@s!
Un saludo
Miguel

Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games!
The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime!
Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!
Monthly Meet Up (Agnes Aubert’s Mystical Cat Shelter)
This month we’ll be reading Agnes Aubert’s Mystical Cat Shelter by Heather Fawcett. Feel free to come and chat even if you don’t finish the book!

This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime!
**AND TODAY IS OUR THIRTEENTH ANNIVERSARY!!!** So be ready for a celebration of everything that's made Improv Meetup wonderful: you, the amazing performers!
Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for May is "Ink"
Speak Easy: true stories, told live.
The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast.
Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect.
The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
