Back in Câmpulung and Romania for a long weekend. Last time I ended up breaking my collar bone – this time around no broken bones! And since last time Razvan has been to the Olympics as the Coach/trainer of the Romanian team. So nice to be back and the temperature is just above 0 degrees, […]
This area is big and filled with smooth trails. This time I cross the river Gauja (coming from Sigulda and beyond) from Carnikava. Such a nice feeling going from one lake to another. Even finding some buildings that have seen better days. Pretty clear how vulnerable this nature is. Motor driven vehicles ruin the top […]
It’s a day off and I haven’t been t Lithuania so why not pop over and check out some of the stuff I’ve seen on YouTube. Same as for the neighbors up North there are no mountains in this country either. As there is a lack of natural rocks, slabs and cliffs I guess it […]
Days are not shorter. They are so short you hardly notice. Time to bring out the LedX Cobra and enjoy all the 6500 lumen 😊
Pictures from a 40 kilometer ride in and around Riga with Karlis
How cool. Having friends over for a long weekend just biking all days along. We get ourselves a soft start by cruising around in the city. And getting interviewed… Friday In Mežaparks we drop by the song festival stage (Mežaparka Lielā Estrāde) and make our way back to the city passing by Bābelītes, Velo Express […]
I was so eager to check out some trails in Balozi that I didn’t plan at all for when day surrenders to night. Anyway, I got myself some urban riding and a lap or two around a bit too sandy trails in the forest. Caught by the dark. I had to use my phone to […]
Shorter evenings make the rides shorter, but casing a jump can make the ride even shorter… Not much time after work but just wanted to discover this place as I’ve seen some vids from here. Calling it a ski resort would give you the wrong idea, but there are actually several lifts in spite of […]
Old buildings, modern buildings, parks, bridges, countryside, railways, highways, old town and even a swamp… City impressions from a 30 kilometer ride with Karlis on urban trails in Riga.
Sigulda is a town 45 minutes away from Riga. It’s located on a plateau above the Gauja River valley. From the town there is a vertical drop of approx. 80 meters down to the river. 80 meter is not much of a deal but in the Baltics this is a lot. They even build ski […]
