Oh joy!!

My brother-in-law has good taste, and they all where brought to me this evening! Good for cold and dark autumn evenings. Rökporter was requested, Nils Oscars Indian Pale ale I have also tasted before (good one!), the rest of them are new to me, looking forward to get to know them.

Nybakkrunden 2012

Last weekend I participated in Nybakkrunden, a small local competition at Mangenskogen close to Aurskog. 35 kilometer, mostly gravel roads, only 2 kilometers with forest road. Not technically difficult, but perfect for those who are preparing for Birkebeinerrittet the week after.

I ended up as #54, a bit faster than my goal which was 1:15. Here standing together with Torbjørn who won the whole race, spending around 11 minutes less than me (!).

Perpetuum mobile

Got this picture from my old colleague at Bertel O. Steen, Geir. It is my old bike, the famous Tricky Track made by DBS which I bought in 1994. At some point I decided that it was crap, but the handy man Geir was more than happy to use it, and still is, now 18 years after commuting to work.

Handyman and my reward

With a little help from my son, making a cover for the grill, function before form and maybe not a winner in Queer Eye, but it does the job.

And the reward. Ok, the trained eye will spot that the ones to the left is 0%. Elin bought them in case we got visitors that would not drink and drive.
