What’s a better way to see a city than biking it? This time Cologne. My oldest son is studying here and gets to be the guide. The poor rental bike gets abused: The rain starts and we head for a pub and some typical Kölsch And we didn’t see the Cologne Cathedral – the famous […]
Isaberg… Where you can have fun regardless of age… 😊 The morning Is relatively dry, and we get into the park mode After a short lunch the rain starts, and I’m blessed having a son that has already understood that that is when the fun starts. We focus on the gnarly stuff It’s wet for […]
Slightly biased… but I’m impressed of what the 12-year old manages now. Happy father-son-ride Carl is surprising me doing the “No brakes” trail And then the “Strumpan” trail Cruising home A poor moose calf got stressed and lost mum it seems.
Biking your childhood trails with childhood friends is the best. Some pics from three days of riding: Day 1: Björnerödspiggen Day 2: Buar-Sandvattnet-Håvedalen-Massleberg-Buar Day 3: Skeeskogen
This is not about sending it, shredding it, gnarly sections or the best technical or flowy trail ever. It’s not about the highest mountains, longest climb or extremes of any other kind for that matter. This is about calmingly enjoying and appreciating all the different landscapes of my home county Halland. And It’s all done […]

When searching the Internet, I early on came across the 6 minutes video on YouTube where Kenny Belaey rides the Lebanon Mountain Trail from border to border. If you have no clue what the country looks like and what it can offer in terms of biking – […]
Biking is always a great way to explore a place. This time Beirut. The city and country have been on my bucket list for decades and finally we go there the whole family. It’s in the Middle East and the cradle of civilization. Unfortunately, also in the middle of conflicts. And back in 2020, also […]
It’s Sunday and the day after the hills in the Ardennes. I wanted to go for yet another spin, but an easy one so I asked the kind owners of the hotel and of course… There was a bike to borrow. Not fancy at all but it had two wheels. I left Ghent thinking of […]
I’m not a hard-core Road Biker so I wouldn’t know, but I get the feeling that Oudenaarde, in the Flemish Ardennes, is something like Whistler for dedicated Mountain bikers. I’m here with Mathias who has done the real Tour of Flanders – De Ronde Van Flaanderen. The race is more than 100 years old and […]
I have the pleasure of having been here many times, but this is the first time on a bike. Rental city bike, but still… We cross the bridge over The Danube and head for the Southern part of the city. We enter Petržalka, in the past known as the “Bronx of Bratislava” because of the […]
