Cycling, Byxelkrok-Byrum, Öland

Started from Byxelkrok at around 08.30 and headed south along the western coast, first on asphalt roads, then on gravel and later on sandy but untechnical hiking trails.. I had planned to go much further south, but at Byrum I discovered that my rear wheel had become seriously askew so I limped back the fastest route and the distance covered was only 36km..

Cycling, Alvaret, Öland, Oct-25th

A half-day road trip around Alvaret at the southern part of Öland.. Started close to Skogsby, headed south to Resmo, then east over Alvaret to Stenåsa where I took a break at the sea.. Continued south past Seby and then headed west over Alvaret again to Möckleby.. Then north back towards Skogsby, with a stop at a café and a hill with a scenic view on the way.. Total distance was 102 kilometres..

Mtb, Blå Spåret, Hellas, Sweden

A Saturday ride with my brother on "Blå Spåret", starting from Hellasgården, heading east, taking a lunch break and than going back the same way.. Superb, fairly techical trail with perfect mix of rock surfs, root fests, mud madness and short but challenging ascends and descends.. We started at around 10.30 and was back at the cars about 3 hours later..
