Posts from trips and rides.
Summer is heading towards it´s end and i´m riding again. This summer has been one of a kind, i usually don't ride that much and this summer in particular has been all about work and evening skinny dipping with the family. I started my new job the week after midsummer and that means no vacation,… Continue reading Back on track
Sometimes you need a little push. We (me and Sven) has been talking about doing an overnighter at Sandön for years. You who follow my blog knows the big island that kicks off our archipelago is a place i return to both summer and winter. Even tough it´s close and easy to access we´ve never… Continue reading Solstice Overnighter
I'm not saying raising kids is easy, cos it's not. Living the family life with all the musts and parental responsibilities can be a bit frustrating. I love having kids, watch them grow up and turn in to awesome little persons and I'm so proud of them. But the family life gets to you. It's… Continue reading The gettaway
November, the most dull month of the year. It´s that time when we´re just waiting for the winter to arrive. Short days, rain, cold but not dry like in the winter. But all of a sudden temperature drops and the sun show herself. This year i have not visited Sandön at all with my bike.… Continue reading In between

A Rockymountain Blizzard with a huge 150 mm Wren up front. What a beast! Wicklow county is full of… Continue reading The Emerald Fat Bike Connection – Part six, Trails of Wicklow

I love the contrasts of beach riding and going far out on frozen water with just months in between. The only time of year that… Continue reading Mind the gap
Since we´re far up in the arctic we might as well go to Norway. I love the Swedish mountains but Norway is something complete different. That might sound strange when we´re so close to each other. But really it´s a huge different, higher peaks, steeper mountains and the fjords.... About one hour drive from Björkliden… Continue reading All Mountain weekend, Reinnesfjellet slick rock, Norway
It is finally autumn and the annual trip up to the mountains is on. Our bike club Luleå Terrängcyklister arrange a trip every year. I missed the event last year so i was pretty stoked to join for the 2017 trip. We go to Björkliden, a ski and hike resort far up north way pass… Continue reading All Mountain weekend, Låktatjåkka Mountain lodge
Kevin from the UK been spending a couple of weeks up here again. After driving around the northern parts of Sweden, Norway and Finland for a few weeks he stayed a few days at our hose. On Sunday we went for a spin out on the trails by the airport and beyond. It´s been a… Continue reading Sunday among pines
The joy of finding new trails. When it comes to riding your local trails some times you just pedal on with out thinking. You know what you get and don't bother to try something new. I recently discovered a sweet little area just a kilometer from my house. The nature preserve of Gammelstadsviken. When i… Continue reading A Wednesday not wasted
