Making parts

Today I made myself some singlespeed spacers, very clean looking with just one piece on each side of the cog instead of several narrower spacers. I lathed them from alumunium and gave them a quick polish, turned out looking really nice. Pictures up tomorrow, time for bed. Hopefully I'll make a new bashring tomorrow :) I wont make a tensioner just now though, I'll just modify my old one and make a new later.

New gear

I've finally finished my new wheels and gotten the stuff from Tartybikes that I ordered, new cogs and chains. I put everything on today, and found out what needs to be done before I can ride with the new parts. I need new SS-spacers and a new tensioner, and while I'm at it I'll get a new, cleaner looking bashring. All are things I can make myself at work, so that's what I'll spend the afternoons doing the next few days.

Comp

The 3rd round of the Swedish Champs was today in Kinna. Not much to say really, I rode really well but ended up on 2nd place anyway. This time far behind Björn, he rode really well on his home ground. I will try to get hold of some pics. It was a really good event anyway with nice sections, it's just a shame that the amount of participants has gone down to an all-time-low in Swedish Champs, today only 17 riders took part in the event. Compared to the 50-60 we've had before that is really bad..

BURGER KING

I know, I'm slow. This is news I should have posted more than a week back, but anyways:

My two latest videos, the ones on the videos page on the site, are shown in all Burger King restaurants in Sweden!! 300 screens! It's quite awesome actually.

Now, everyone has to go to Burger King Extreme Film Awards and sign up and vote for my video!

First clips for a new video

I went out this weekend to ride the spots I found down by the south bank earlier last week, and they were really good. The only problem was that it was too windy to ride properly. Hopefully the weather will clear up again, it's raining now, so I can go down and ride the spots again later this week. On Saturday I've got a competition and I just hope my stuff from Tartybikes have arrived by then, so I can get my new rear wheel finished.

RIP Beau

Although I only met Beau once he seemed like a sound person, it's always tragic when these things happen. His riding really began to get very good, a shame to loose a talented rider this way.

Ride in Peace.

A forest

I just couldn't wait for the whole set of pictures to be edited, so I thought I'd show you one of the shots from a session in Slottsskogen with my friend and photographer Victor Zackrisson

New spots

I've found loads of new spots around the centre of Gothenburg :) I went out on a walk with one of my friends just to walk around and look at the city at night, and ended up in areas I've never been before, and I'm really excited to go there some day soon to ride and film

Hultsfred -08

Woohoo. Last week I really didn't do any riding, I was at the Hultsfred festival instead. I had a great time camping with my friends and I saw lots of good band: Rage against the machine, Raised Fist, Rufus Wainwright and tons of others. Now I'm back and will start working tomorrow, and hopefully get to ride a lot this week.
