Lost our way

Yesteday me and Espen went out with our bikes, trying to do the same route we tried last year. The first time we tried we missed our way in an intersection and ended up out in the moor. Yesterday we choosed the right way where we missed it last time, but still managed to miss at another intersection. That caused us to walk with our bikes for at least one hour…doh!! But all good things are three as said in Norwegian…

Gone Wild

Banger Racing at Eksismoa

Today, or more correct – yesterday, Espen, Elin and me went to Eksismoa http://www.eksismoa.no, despite Anders Glende lack of acceptance, to watch banger racing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banger_racing. We had a lot of luck, it rained cats and dogs right until ten minutes before we arrived, after that it was no rain and a bit of sun. We also meet Bunæs there, and joined him and his friend. Elin loved it!!

I’ve bought new skiis

Tried to buy a pair of new Elan Mantis 777, but a stinking guy bought the last pair right in front of me at Oslo Sportslager. 15 minutes later I passed by G-Sport and they had a pair of Head Mojo 90 left. I got them for half the price…yess!!! They are good enough for Jon Olsson, so it should be enough for me 🙂

A tribute to Michael Park

From the webpage to Peugeot.com

A serious accident has left the Peugeot Sport team in mourning this Sunday morning during the last leg of the Wales Rally GB. Markko Martin left the route shortly after the start of the second stage of the day and hit a tree on the right hand side of the car, mortally wounding his co-driver Michael Park. Peugeot Sport’s Director, Jean-Pierre Nicolas, with the agreement of Mr. Frederic Saint-Geours, Managing Director of Peugeot, has decided, as a sign of mourning, to withdraw the car of Marcus Gronholm – Timo Rautiainen.

Peugeot Automobiles and Peugeot Sport would like to express their feeling of extreme sadness and deep emotion to the family of Michael Park, known affectionately as Beef.
