Gravity driven fun!

This weekend was planned to be spent in Karlstad at the SSSM, Swedish Single Speed Championship and in Kinnekulle but there were some change of plans due to fatigue and time shortage.

But eventually there were new plans drawn and Sunday was decided to be spent in Gesunda at the down hill tracks.

The Sunday started with me waking up at 7:20 A.M. noticing that the alarm clack wasn't set to on, I had set the alarm time to 7:00 A.M. but forgot to switch it on! Had to call Tobbe to come by later.

When making breakfast I managed to burn my finger on the bacon lard in the frying pan! Started to wonder if the day was going to continue in this manner...?

    That drop looks so lame from the side. Not at all what it felt like the first times. :D

  6. Yeah, we hade to stop recording the drops and such, not good for the self esteem to see how lame it looks compared to how it feels!
