Cyclocross, Järvafältet, Oct 24th

A ride with the cyclocross bike on Järvafältet north of Stockholm.. Dry gravel roads, blue skies and sunshine, red and yellow autumn colors, a very nice day.. Lunch at Helenes Café with the lady afterwards went down a treat..

Cyclocross, Uppsala, 21st of December






Very warm for the season so all snow and ice has melted away.. Between X-mas related social activities, I headed out Saturday morning in Uppsala for a couple of hours of riding.. 4-5 C, with a slow but steady rain.. I first took a loop south-west in the area around Hammarskog and found some nice trails, gravel roads and muddy fields.. Then I headed east and followed Fyrisån north before heading back home again.. Total distance was about 44 kilometres..

Cyclecross on a wintery Northern Öland






2 Days ago it was cold and windy, but with crisp and dry gravel roads.. I had plans for some fast hiking-trails but yesterday afternoon the white fluff started falling from the skies, and this morning it was a very different landscape.. Settled with a fairly short, about 30 kilometers, but still rather challenging ride on snowy roads.. Lots of fun! :-)

Cycling, North-Western Öland, 2nd of Jan






First ride of the year, heading south from Byrums raukar on the North-Western side of Öland.. A few degrees below freezing point and a rather chilly north-western wind.. Followed scenic, winding gravel roads to Äleklinta and then turned north at Vannborga.. Back to the car via a pizzeria in Långerum, total distance aprox. 86 kilometres..

Cyclocross, Järvafältet, Stockholm





Started out the day with semislicks and the intention to do about 100 km's on asphalt, heading west from Solna out on "Mälaröarna".. But it was pretty boring so I turned back home at Drottningholm, had a quick lunch, switched to cross-tires, and drove to Säby Gård at Järvafältet.. Had a lot more fun there, racing on gravel and dirt roads, and exploring various trails and rocky areas.. Distance today was about 20 + 30 kilometres..
