WOW, I bet your chains, sprockets, wheel bearings, fork seals, and shock Heim bearings wear out very fast there!

SkÃƒÂ¶vde is a little bit north of there I live. I would guess it was the best temperature of them all, around 0 degrees celsius. Humidity around 70-80% so the chill goes straight through.

RE: put some damned clothes on!

I'd look like the Sta-Puff marshmallow man, with all the clothes I'd be wearing

Holly Crap Mikst it looks just like Nova Scotia,Jo-Usa yes,yes,and yes.By the looks of the snow/mud mix the temp is just above freezing and you only get cold when you stop riding....nsman...as soon as the ground freezes I switch to my old trials bike,can you ever beat yourself up falling off your enduro bike and hitting frozen mud.

Nice pics. It seems that people goes off road everywhere besides in Sweden.

We only ride the tracks since it's forbidden everywhere else. I got the opportunity to follow a few Spanish riders last year I visited Spain. When you ride in the tracks you go as fast as you dare and that isn’t like taking a ride with some friends.

The links I posted were from two competitions in the beginning of this month.
