Reminders of autumn on Rundfjellet.

Just another day with rain in the air, and plenty on the ground. Being this far north and close to the ocean and the weather it brings, it is hard to find more than a couple of hundred meters of below treeline riding. We aimed for a short and mostly

Wet blanket on Buren, one more on the list.

The foot of Buren was wet after a day and some of solid rain, but I and Gustav still made good progress through puddles, slippery grass and mud. The heather that had been warm, dry and comforting for so long was now soaked and cold, reminding us that summer might

Nu med fanclub!

Solsken och torr asfalt, jag hade nästan glömt hur det kändes. Lite bunnyhoppande på parkeringen lockade även till sig en ung publik, snart kommer det vara så stora högar fan-brev på dörrmattan att jag inte kommer in i lägenheten, men det får man ta. I övrigt en sjukt härlig efteriddag
