Lake Varpan Round
I went for a short road ride on this cold morning. Just 1°C as I woke up and the sun trying to get through the clouds. Thus, I didn’t really see much of the lake as it was still covered in fog. Getting a bit of rest now and putting some cold packs on my…

Stockholm
I arrived in Stockholm today.

At Skeppsbroajen, the Götheborg had docked. An impressive replica of the Swedish East Indiaman…
