Early bike ride: Tunsjøen – Gurihøldalen – Svanmoåsen – Aurskog – Bjørkelangen

Yet another chance today. Started out the same direction as yesterday, but when at Tunnsjøbotten I headed north towards Aurskog. Here at Tunnsjøbotten, the old barn is no more

View from the old croft (I do belive that’s the correct word) – small farm, towards Tunsjøen

Quite steep up from Tunnsjøbotn up towards Gurihølsæter, see the workout analysis for details, link below.

Up at Svanmoåsen where I was able to ride my bike for some short distances. But since there had been done tending of the road not many years ago there was plenty of small tree stumps so I decided to carry and push the bike to avoid the gear shifter to be torn off by a stubborn stump.

All names along the route found thanks to Norgeskart. See all details at Sports-tracker.com

Early bike ride: Tunsjøen – Skottdalen – Korsbekken – Langfoss

Woke up 06:30 today, very nice weather and the youngest one at his grandparents – got up and had a quick breakfast and headed out. A bit chilly, sometimes when walking over bog’s the water froze to ice on the tyres when I stopped. Apart from that, all fine.

End of the road and now on to the road less travelled.

Passing just by the border of Prestehesten nature reserve

No road, had to carry the bike. 3-4 km which I had to push and carry the bike over bog. Tried to avoid to get wet since it was chilly and therefore it was a bit of ups and downs – mostly ups.

Bog

Skottdalen, a bit to wet to ride the bike, had to push it.

First bike ride this year

Yesterday I had the first bike ride this year, and actually the first bike ride since the 31’st of July 2014 (!!!). A bit chilly, but apart from that really nice weather at Korsbekken.
