As Emma pointed out to me the other day, this site really is ready for a redesign. The snow has melted even in Sweden (at least Skåne).

This morning I rode along the banks of the River Taff and stopped to watch the water glisten over the top of the stones. It could have been mistaken for the middle of summer, birds singing, the sound of the river flowing, a light wind through the trees.

When I was younger my approach to mountain biking had to do with speed and danger. These days, while I still love riding a fast, technical trail I also enjoy stopping to take in the surroundings.
