Slippery gravel and a good evening

Visiting our friends out on Helgö, an island in Mälaren, close to Stockholm. So, why not take the bike? Around 30 km and beautiful views- a perfect ride!

Very nice roads for bike. Well, maybe except for the last few hundred meters, when the asphalt turned to gravel. Last turn, going very slow, and the front wheel just started to slip to the right. Nothing I could do, except feeling happy that I had my bicycle gloves on. Never thought that gravel could be so slippery. Something I dont think about when running..

Happy to have learned something new this day as well, I cleaned it up in the shower, and then enjoyed a campari. Ok, maybe two camparis. Really good for a bloody leg.

Razak made some fantastic things with the grill, and after a great dinner awaited Germany against Uruguay. So much better football than the finals. Of course, here we had two teams playing football, in the final there was only one team playing football.

Since I didnt have any lights on the bike, I put the bike in the car, and got dropped close to Ekerö Centrum, to ride in the remaining 20 km. Cool air, still some light, very enjoyable.
