Åre Bike Park. Home of the world DH Championship already 1999 and a natural northern home to the sport. With its endless trails and 7 lifts also being Scandinavia’s biggest Bike Park. And of course, iconic when it comes to the Alpine skiing. We use the cable car taking us from fall to winter – […]

Fjällnäs & Tänndalen, Sweden
A dream come true! I’ve been biking for so many years and in so many places and so many countries, but never managed to experience the Swedish mountains in the fall. Something that I’ve having a dream about for so long that I though my dream would be hard to realize – at least in […]
With Carl in Isaberg, Sweden
Back in Isaberg. This time only with Carl, focusing on the natural trails more than the built ones. The classic green flow trail “Pelikanen” was in very bad shape and the new blue flow trail “Albatrossen” is really a disappointment. Very hard to find any flow except for the very first part. Such a pity […]
Lofsdalen Bike Park, Sweden
Designed, built or whatever by the Gravity Logics guys from Whistler, this Bike Park has rendered a lot of positive comments so while up North, why not check it out. Not even half way up Sweden, but far away from home – Lofsdalen Bike Park: Stoked to get going Someone is very happy to be […]
Short Evening Rides in Funäsfjällen, Sweden
Bit of drive from home but welcomed by fantastic weather 🙂 Junior can’t hold back and goes for a short spin while we are unpacking and preparing for some days of hiking, canoeing and biking. We weren’t really expecting any good riding here as activities would take place elsewhere but during the evenings we found […]
Family ride Visby-Tofta Beach, Gotland
Visby and the island of Gotland is an absolute fantastic destination and I can’t understand why I haven’t been here before… Anyway. We are not here for biking but somehow I always end up biking wherever I go so I’m not surprised… Visby dates back to 900 AD and has a lot of interesting history […]
Tofta, the Little Enduro Hill
When checking some segments or was it riders… I came across some segments in Tofta that I’d never heard anyone talk about. I caught my attention and before I knew it I was there 🙂 . It’s right here: The trails are built by a very nice local guy that I happened to meet. They […]
A Great Start of May Month!
Meeting up with Fredrik, Linus, Janne and Hauke for some riding on the local trails and maybe a beer or two after. Trails are great today and we get to enjoy the great views from Gungelid. The mini “hardline” of Gungelid is a bit sketchy as it is off camber. Janne gets it ticked off […]
Idefjorden again
This time we started at Kangeröd and made it a longer ride just short of 40 kilometers and 1000 meters of climb. For details see my Strava log. Some pics from a ride in fantastic conditions with Albert and Micke:
Helmet
Helmet in Swedish is Hjälm. Hjälm in Sweden is where we go for a ride me and Jr. Great trails! Wrong line but he saved it and didn’t take a fall. Anyway a good break at the viewpoint and a nice downhill after. Nice storage: More of the good stuff:
