Training for Roxen Runt

After many hours of working on my bike after shipping it from USA...it works! Yes, and some friends and I have been out training for a race we will do August 28th. It is an 84 km (52 mile) race around Lake Roxen in Linköping. Here are some pics of the updated bike.

Fjällvandring (Mountain Trekking), Fishing, USA and Hunting Preparations with Nivos!

Its been a busy summer!

Im back in Linköping, but soon to leave again. I wish the summer would last longer, but I have work to do, and have been working with Excel to revise some stuff for my course.

The trip to USA was great! San Francisco was very nice! Could definitely live there. Its a big city, but still feels nice and almost European (public transport!). Love it! And will go back and check out what more it has to offer again.

I was also back home for a few weeks, working, camping and relaxing. It was a welcomed period of relaxation, well when I was not shopping! Again everything is so cheap back at home, so I took advantage of the exchange rate and cheap prices and bought so much good stuff!

After getting back home I headed off to Ystad for a few days, then Linköping to work a bit and prepare for our hiking trip. All I can say is...AMAZING! BEAUTIFUL! FANTASTIC! With a 19kg pack, Sofia, Nivos and I hiked between Storulvån-Sylarna-Helags-Gåsen-Storulvån. It was breathtaking (both the view and the hard work it took). We were up in the moutains above the treeline, and I even got to fish quite a bit. Im going again!

Pics coming soon...
