Cycling Year 2016 in Pictures

Despite the fact that 2016 was the worst cycling-wise, it still was an important year. I graduated finally, years late, but graduated. It was also the first summer having a car, which meant day-trips to places on nice sunny days. I promised I wouldn't go into any details, instead I will share some pictures from along the year.

Awakening

Inhale. The cranks turn, pedals absorb the power, finally transmitting it to the wheels, turning them with an almost silent hum. A few gentle clicks and the rear derailleur smoothly moves the chain further on the cassette. Exhale. I grab the handlebars tight and pull myself out of the saddle. I feel the bike respond to my every action. Acceleration is smooth, yet effective.

Autumn is here

It's been a while since I've been talking about training and everyday activities. I also have some race-reports waiting to be written.

Looking back at my cycling year 2014

It feels strange wrapping up a cycling season in February when everyone does it in December or early January. But I will do it now, mainly because my memory is really bad but also because I want to go back and look at what I did so it's easier to compare to my efforts today. Cycling year 2014 was great in many ways. And a warning to those of you who are looking for a short story, you can stop reading here.

Yuletide

So after a couple of good weeks of training there was one with less good outcome. I went on a business-trip to Stockholm and became ill so I've been off the bike now for 5 days. So nothing new to share, except that Christmas is approaching. I've bought myself something already and the packages should be arriving these days. So because lack of cycling photos, you'll get some Christmas ones instead. Have a nice weekend!
