My friend Micke came over for some biking and we kind of copied Johann Müehlegg’s set-up from Salt Lake City 2002 – well not the steroid part obviously, but: “Open hard and then increase!” We just got back from 6 days of awesome biking in different mountains in Southeast Europe. The temperature in Bucharest […]
Munții Postavarul & Piatra Craiului, Romania
This time the base is Brașov, some three hours away from Bucharest. The city is a bit of a hub for the different sports you can do in the mountains. To maximize the biking in two days I used a guide from Mtbtours: Horia. Another guy from Bucharest that I didn’t know had the […]
Munții Bucegi, Romania
Sinaia is only 1,5 hours away from the flat plain that Bucharest sits on. Suddenly you are in the Carpathians and at 900 meters elevation. If you like to you can reach 2000 meters above sea level with the cable car. Me like. I had a customer event in Sinaia yesterday and brought the […]
Spring ride – Bucharest, Romania

The trail of pilgrims – Dalsland, Sweden
Some time things just turn our so damn good when you combine a classic family trip with some bike riding in a new place! I had the bike on the car rack when going to the ”biggest tourist attraction in Dalsland” for a couple of days. So, what is it – the tourist attraction? […]
A hill or two – Crete, Greece

Halden, Norway
Gotta share… Micke came by and picked me up for a ride on the trails in Ertemarka in Halden, Norway. The Norwegians are crossing the border for shopping and we do it for the biking. Anyway you have to pay the bridge toll I’m sure some of you have been in Halden if you have […]
