Today needed a short album, found Torgny’s new album “Oil Panic” using Wimp. Not what I did expect, somewhat good album, but I won’t listen to it again, while spinning at least. In Norwegian, read the review by Natt & Dag “SCHIZOFRENI SATT I SYSTEM”
Yesterday, again quality time out in the barn, well dressed since it was below 0, spinning to Bruce Springsteen’s old album Born in the U.S.A.. It did actually work very well as workout music while spinning!
Trying to match the beat of Working on the Highway my pulse increased a lot

Couple of days ago, spinning to Pearl Jam again, this time the album Binaural released back in 2000. A bit to laid back for me while spinning, I must admit that I fast forwarded the two-three latest songs and ended up with David Guetta.
Early Sunday morning, got up before the others. Got some quality time in the barn spinning to Pearl Jam and their latest album Lightning Bolt. Good one, but as most of the other albums from Pearl Jam I will have to listen to it more than once to really start enjoying it.
Went to Arendal together with friends this weekend to try Tungvekteren. Weather forecast was promising and also accurate. So after getting up early on Saturday morning, jumping into the car and heading down to Arendal we started biking at around 12:00.
Someone have had technical problems
Trine on one of the most spectacular spots on the track.
At the hotel, we stayed at Tyholmen, pretty nice!
And it turned out to be a beer festival there the same evening, which we could not refuse to attend.
This one from Nøgne Ø, 16%, coffee among the other ingredients.
Sunday morning view
Steinar and Espen enjoying the view
The view
Since we deserve it, hamburger and Cola on our way home.
Me and Piper, our neighbor, or to be more correct – our neighbors dog – went out running two days ago. I got pulled a lot for the first half hour, but the rest we were more or less helping each other. Fun to not be all alone, also since it got pitch-dark at the end.
Out running yesterday and with the help of a map and a compass I did do some border control That is, trying to figure out what is our land and what is the neighbors land (say it with the tunes of This Is Your Land in the back of your head). Passing this bog I had to take some pictures, was a pretty nice view.
Afterwards I made a huge fire. Had collected a lot of branches and covered them with plastic the past two months, so they where really dry. One single match made all this.
This evening, spinning to The Strokes and their new album Comedown Machine. Must admit that I fast forwarded some of the songs, not the best choice for interval training.
Also upgraded my gym, bought a big clock when in Sweden. It is synced using radio signals from an atomic watch somewhere in Germany. So it adjusts itself, and also switch from summer to winter time and back again, how cool is that?
And a close up shows the unintended romantic trick.
My car is at the auto shop today for the periodic technical inspection (EU inspection). So I needed to get back home. Two hours until the bus departed, cannot run since that would kill my legs and not able to bring my bike to Bjørkelangen. Solution – kickbike!!
Took a panorama-picture, but my iPhone did not cope with the sun, but fun anyhow
Nice view just before Fosser
But, that’s nothing, this guy did America coast to coast http://suewidemark.com/delzer.htm
This year is not like the past ones, today I had my first bike ride, 5 months later than for instance last year. But, what is better is the weather when riding the bike in May than in January.
A quick stop overlooking Maridalsvatnet.
