First time downhill at Hafjell

This weekend Espen and I finally got to spend some quality time together using the xmas-gift from our wifes (https://youwish.no/). Intention was to drive a race car, but we ended up renting downhill bikes at Hafjell. Had a lot of fun, got some air, but not big air. Espen sprained his thumb, other than that no major accidents either. Tired legs, arms hurting, knee also, apart from that, just fun. Some pictures and video as well, filmed by Espen using his GoPro.

Rats – Secret Soundscapes of the City

Finally understood what the sound I did hear on my way to work was: “Rats – Secret Soundscapes of the City”

A stone’s throw from the white-marbled Opera house, and based on the hypothesis that rats serenade one another with love songs, Jana Winderen will record the ultrasonic landscape of Bjørvika and slow the sound down to human hearing levels.

I’m in need of a JCB Fastrack

Yesterday, got overtaken by another tractor. Need to win in the lottery and buy a JCB Fasttrack to keep up with the speed of these modern tractors. I actually thought I had to slow down when he did try to overtake me, but no – I did not need to, he passed me in just a few seconds… doh!!

Fetsund timber booms

Yesterday me and the boys went to Fetsund timber booms where we spent a couple of hours together with Kent. Nice weather and a lot of people. The two oldest ones did not want to go, they said it would be boring…did not hear them complain at all when there. Just remember to borrow a life jacket when out on the floating paths, we did not and it made me a bit stressed when carrying the youngest one and watching the two others.
