Last weekend the swe champ came to my home town, Örebro. We had fantastic weather all weekend and the races was absolutely amazing.
In the 450 class we had the first five within 3.5s in the first race after 17 laps. The second race was not as tight but not far from it.
In the Open class Martin Lind, who is a WC regular, was home to show us how a proper "twist of the wrist" is supposed to be executed.... He totally dominated the two Open-races and set a new track record.
For me the weekend was no success, didn't even qualify into the final :cry:
Here are a bunch of great photos http://jsfoto.com/galleri/060611smsmorebro/index.htm
And the results from all classes http://www.mylaps.com/results/showevent.jsp?id=139805
No excellent Berg results in the 450 class but "we" dominated the open class (1, 3, 4, 6, 7 in the first race and 1, 2, 5, 9 in the second).

Some interesting people...
#4 is Martin Lind
#2 is Johan Ejdehage (last years 450-champion)
#1 is Ola Eifrem (last years Open-champion)
#174 is Willy Reiter (austrian guy who, I think, is reigning champ at home).
#1 on the Quad is Niklas Lundbäck (reigning euro-champ and current leader this year)
#86 is me. I'm also the guy standing next to the "price presenting girl" (we have a swedish word for that...) in the Berg leathers. I was riding with my C/F tank as weel but unfortunately I suffered a bad crash early sunday and the tank cracked :cry:
Some cool bikes to notice
#3 is a very tricked out KX450
#13 & #56 rides the new SXV aprilia, one 450 and one 550.
#17 rides a former WC vertemati 570
#31 is Eddy Seels Husky from last year
#45 is the only ATK I've ever seen.
Take a close look at Stefan #55 and John #87, they are riding with the coolest carbon fibre wheels you ever saw.
Unfortunately Ola Eifrems Highland 450 has not yet been made race ready (he rode a husky). I spoke to one of the R&D guys and he said they are close now. One cool feature they are using is telemetry via bluetooth 8)
