Long beautiful ride yesterday. Really nice roads over here. 5h20min of pure enjoying and rather good feeling.
Today just relaxing. Doing some officework before some kind of presentation at stage 15.30. Nice day
Tomorrow some riding on the track and Sunday full gas.

Hard training on the track today. Slippery and fun…

The drive here yesterday went smooth. Today is an easy day and I had a good recovery run and some core training this morning. Took my bike down town to do some officework. have no internet up in the houses, so now hanging in a hotel with WiFi. A bunch of emails to sort out. Things are going rather good and we have some interesting projects comming up.

Time to head back up the hill.

I am ready!

Really good ride in the track today. I did a few laps rather easy, trying to be relaxed and just get the body started again after a few days of hard training. Restdays normally get me recovered but I need to get started again with some real training. Tomorrow a harder ride on the track. Looking forward to that.
We stay about 150metres from the track. Sweet!

On the road.

Dead tired after yesterdays ride in the wet. I hope todays restday will super compensate and I have strong legs by Sunday.
Sune is like an alarm clock. 06.00, pappi wake up, time to play. Breakfast and a bit of cleaning the house before Anna brought me to the airport. Now waiting to board and head down to CZE republic.
Two important weekends comming up.
Got a bunch of emails from satisfied people from the camp we had last weekend. That makes me really happy.
Cheers, E

Wet…

Long day in the saddle. Started with 3houra in bad weather and finished with 2,5 hours in even worse. Rather warm temperatures so no complains.
Last but not least I was coaching a group of people how to ride their bikes. Was a fun couple of hours, despite a broken bike. Got a stick in my rear wheel and smashed both derailleur and wheel. Lucky me…

Now sleeping time, tomorrow travel time. Rock n roll!

5*5min mtb

Though mtb intervalls today. Alexander joined and made my training way more fun. Five times one lap on our mtb course. I really like that track. Felt ok but a bit tired. A bunch of trails after that session and I am happy about my day.
Tomorrow long ride, probably wet… Also some work in the evening with a group who wants to learn to ride their bikes. Looking forward to that.

Me and sune just finished a walk around our track.

MTB fun!

Nice mtb ride this morning. I felt a bit off to begin with but in the end I was shredding like normal again Five 30sec sprints and a bunch of trails.

Now relaxing in front of the Giro. Soon some core training.

Yeehaa!

Great days!

Cykelvasa camp is over. I really love these days and I am already looking forward to do it again. It is a pleasure to teach motivated people how to ride their bikes. A bunch of different people with the same goal, to become a better mtbiker.
I have made some new friends and exchanged experiences which I am sure will help me to become a better person and rider.
Now a few days of training before hitting the road again for next worldcups. I am in a good mode
