Worn out bike chain

Had a puncture yesterday on my way to work, just to realize that the tool I needed to loosen the back wheel was at home. So I had to take the subway home in order to fix it. After I had fixed the puncture I then as always had to fasten the tension seeker. Realized then that the chain now is almost totally worn out, as you can see on the picture there is almost no more possibility to create tension to the chain. All this in just about 5 months of use, that includes paternity leave and holiday. Might need to buy better quality?

Looking for setlists?

Preparing for the Green Day concert in two weeks, what is better than looking at the set list from their recent concerts? Found this great site, gives me all I need http://www.setlist.fm/search?query=green+day Really like the integration with Youtube, click on the first song and it plays through all songs in the list.

Yet another thing we really don’t need

INTRODUCING THE WORLD’S FIRST POWER ASSISTED SUITCASE http://www.liveluggage.com/ In the industrialised world where everyone seems to be getting fatter (www.aftenposten.no/amagasinet/article….) do we really need power assisted suitcases? Don’t think so…

On the other hand, can we power up our Ipod with Gatorade and an onion?

Out eating in Ålesund

Today I did not run, my legs are not used to it, so two times this week is enough. Instead I made sure that I got a table at a good restaurant today. Not that Big Horn Steakhouse was’nt good the previous two days, but I wanted something from the sea today, and you do not go to a steak house to get that. So today I got a table at http://www.xldiner.no/ I first had a fish soup, then Bacalao Tandoori and for dessert I had Creme Brulee (but off course!)

The view from my table

And a bad picture of the dessert, super!
