I was helping a guy to buy a good second hand bike and in a weak moment I promised him to go to the mountains together. Suddenly the email was on the loose and we ended up being 8 persons and I was the guide. Bit of strange situation being Swedish guiding Romanians in […]
Here’s a report from 10 days of beach life on Thassos. Here’s the island: Pretty good feeling. Bikes on the car and mountains ahead! Our base for the vacation. Tempting mountains in the background. Highest peak sits at 1204 meters 10 days… I’m not the guy to appreciate the beach life if I haven’t […]
…is at a distance; 400 meters above sea level in a national park overlooking the party town… Somewhat tired from the mud yesterday I took the car to Irakli beach to make a nice trip in Ortoto National Park, and it was: 44km and 1100 meters of climb with amazing views all the time. […]
If you want to go to the sea from where I live it’s not exactly down the road but for a long weekend it’s worth the hours in the car. This time Obzor in Bulgaria. Classic charter flight set-up Only that it’s easy to bring your bike when you’re in the car After […]

With low expectations on the place and the weather we arrived to the apartment in Neos Marmaras […]
Already 25 degrees in the evenings and the nine year old has his first competition coming up soon. So, good timing for a short practice run. He is taking the lead and gets to decide the speed Selfie Impressive ride:
A bit of non-Swedish statement, but that how it is! The birds are tweeting and I got to borrow a 29 inch carbon HT while the babysitter makes it possible to go together with my wife. So damn good! To cut it short… I’m thinking of adding another bike next to my sofa-style-of bikes […]
Beats me. The weather… It is supposed to be winter and snow by now. But ok… let’s pretend it’s spring. The family is enjoying 17 degrees in the garden while I go to the mountains. Fair enough, we had frost during the nights, men 11 degrees at 300 meters elevation in January??? Today’s ride […]
