    Norway ride pics (lots)

    Hey!

    Thought I'd share a few pics of last weeks little epic. The snow is slowly melting here and trails are sort of drying up. Anyway, this is south of Oslo and closer to the boarder of sweden. Happy trails.

    One of the most awesome things about mountain biking is, no matter where I travel and how much I ride, there will always be a kickass trail out there that I haven't ridden yet
    We do what we must because we can.

    COMPLETELY AWSOME! Is that typical of the terrain in the area? Very nice.

    Cool pictures!!! Those trails look exactly like one of my local spots (Middlesex, CT for anyone that has ridden there).
    We don't have that but we can get it for you.

    I was going to say that those trails look a lot like New England Trails - I haven't ridden Middlesex (yet) but they also look a lot like what you might see in Lynn Woods in Massachusetts (again based on pics only right now - but hopefully that'll change someday as well).

    Great pics!!

    I like the low profile Giro helmets you guys are wearing too.

    I was going to say the same thing!! But not not the same spot in CT.

    Middlesex has a lot of those rock beds and the vegetation is the same as in these pics.
    We don't have that but we can get it for you.

    Thanks for the replies I just read in a thread that are too little actual ride threads in the lounge and monkeys are sort of losing interest, so I'd thought I'd share some pics.

    Heidi, there's a bunch of different riding terrain in Norway. This is on the southeast and has trails like this that would take you years to cover, out west we have Alp-like terrain, Mid-Norway has a lot of high plain trails like this:

    Very cool! I am planning on going to Norway sometime in the future.
