Probably the last ast bike ride this year. Being in northen Bohuslän with Micke as a guide normally is equal to fantastic biking in fantastic company. The rest of us: Thomas, Erik, Janne and I. This was a ride on the boarder… On the border between frost and mild weather, between rain and sun, […]

We’ve passed the darkest day – Åsa, Sweden
We were swirling like a leaf in the storm until till pilot got the aircraft safely on ground. Charteer applause! Wow! Back in Sweden on the darkest day, and we are talking daaaaark. Even if we know it will turn around and get brighter it’s all these reports about rain and storms… I must […]
While waiting for snow – Pucioasa, Romania
So, the idea was to go skiing but while waiting for the snow I grab the opportunity to go biking in the mountains. 0 degrees and fog. Not so inspiring in Bucharest But after an hour and half a lot better. I team up with Catalin and Ionuț. Quality gloves 😉 Nice combo of […]
Not like Sven – Băneasa, Romania
Back home in Sweden the storm Sven took down a lot of trees and damaged property. Here it’s not like Sven at all. In fact not very Sven-ish or “svennigt” as we say in Sweden either. The most common second name in Sweden is Svensson, so anything that is very Swedish is Sven-isch – […]

Customer meeting – Oradea, Romania
This week I did ridiculously many hours in the car to meet customers in the country. And as one of them is a biker too we’ve developed a friendship beyond daily business. So good to be in Oradea and so good to be biking with Sebi We start playing around in a deserted military […]
Fog burning off – Cernica, Romania
In spite of thick fog this morning I just felt so much for biking and with 16 degrees it just should be good. And it was. As it turned out the fog burned off and we got to see the sun. I met up with Razvan and got going on the bed of leaves. […]
While the family sleeps – Road trip in Romania
We just did a road trip in the country that we like more and more. Bikes on board for family rides but I did some morning rides on my own also. I left just before sunrise and made it back for breakfast. It added up to three rides: First ride – Masivul Ceahlău, August 8 […]
Fear of the dark – Carpathians, Romania
In spite of a whole week among vampires and bears in Transylvania and repeated forecasts of dark clouds and rain there was no ”fear” and no ”dark” until the whole biking adventure was over. But by then we had it all! We rode in different places in the Transylvanian Alps (the prolongation of the Carpathians) […]
