Norwegian, 23years, Studying physical therapy, well, trying to study..Most of my time goes into bicycle/training related stuff..

Here`s a pic of me during last years National Crit. championship...Here I am trying to get loose, two laps to go..In the penultimate turn of the last lap my back tyre blew...It was a dark moment :evil:

The Pinarello and the corimas are sold. New year; new team, new sponsor.

My motivation for following the MTB index is that I`m wondering about building a sub 8kg mtb...I think this is the place for ideas!

Thats me on Vulkanbike marathon in Daun/Eifel/Germany. This is the end of a highspeed downhill section called "Daun under", related to the name of Marathon location in Germany and for explanation: DAUN in German has the same pronunciation as "DOWN" in English...
