MTB, Dog Trail, Garraf, May 1st
A ride from Playa Castelldefels up the serpentine road past Penya Ginesta and the dog Parc down the blue trail named “Dog Trail”, and then home again via the coastal road. Good fun with the new hardtail MTB but I have a lot of work to do with my cardio and leg power..

eMTB, Parc Del Garraf, March 5th
Another round of eMTB riding from Volo Ebikes in Sitges up on the hills of Parc Del Garraf.. I mostly stayed on fast gravel roads, with some shorter sections on easy trails.. Total ride time was not much more than 2 hours, but a beautiful sunny day..

eMTB, Parc del Garraf, Aug 20th
A Saturday ride in Parc del Garraf with an e-mtb from Volo e-bikes in Sitges.. Some muddy patches after heavy rain a few days earlier, and not as crazy hot as last weeks/months.. I mostly stayed on fast and flowy "green trails", some blue sections and the gravel roads in between. I have a new action camera, the "Insta 360 Go2", I think need to learn the settings and features better for next time..

MTB, Park del Garraf, April 15th
I headed over to Sitges and picked up a e-MTB from Volo E-bikes.. Great shop near Park Del Garraf and first time I tried a bike like this.. For sure, really nice to get the "tail wind" up the hills, even if was rather heavy so less playful than a regular bike.. I randomly followed various smaller and larger trails for 3-4 hours, still a nice workout but covering much more distance than normal.. I'll be back soon for sure!

MTB, Barcelona, Aug 1st
A few hours of casual mountain biking on the gravel roads on the hills above Barcelona. Myself, Xavi and Beverly enjoyed the great views, but it got very hot and humid as the day progressed.

Mtb, Järvafältet, Sept 9th
Back on the trails after a 5+ year break! Got a new FS 29'er and fine tuning it during the first proper ride on Järvafältet. Great weather for the year, sunny and warm. First impression of the bike is very positive, first impression of my physical shape not so much, but still a lot of fun.

Mtb, Jämtlandsfjällen, Aug 24th-26th
Drove with two friends, Erik & Tommy, up north for a planned 2-day ride in Jämtlandsfjällen.. After staying at a hostel in Ljungdalen Friday night we kicked off the mtb ride from Kläppen on Saturday morning.. Up above the treeline and onwards to Helags mountain station for a coffee break.. Wonderful, flowy trails to the hut in Mieskentjakke and then mostly hiking over a mountain pass until we reached Sylarnas mountain station for a late lunch.. We continued towards the goal for the day, Storulvåns mountain station, fantastic and fast trails.. Halfway there I crashed hard in a downhill run, got some bruises, hit my head a bit, but most of the force was taken by my right shoulder so the collarbone snapped.. Hiked 8 kilometres to Storulvån mountain station to get some care by an ambulance crew and after staying the night there we got a ride around the mountains back to our car and headed home..

Mtb, Northern Öland, April 7th
The weather changed during the night, and 1-2 inches of snow brought back the winter.. Perfect conditions to clear the head, so I headed south from Byxelkrok down to Byrums Raukar.. From there, crossed to the east side of the island at Böda Sands camping, and then headed north on White Prick's trail, before closing the loop back to Byxelkrok..

Day 1 of eastern Mtb on Northern Öland, making a loop up to the lighthouse and back to Byxelkrok.. Several sections did not have trails but the terrain is fairly forgiving.. Great fun to discover new routes..
