Am I out of touch or are we out of time?
I've been pondering over what to write about this issue for about two weeks now. At first, I thought I might talk a little bit about time trials and how much I miss the culture of open time trials back in Britain. That led me down a bit of a rabbit hole around cycling culture in general, and what I've come to learn about cycling in Sweden (of course there's a lot more to learn ahead of me, given my short stint so far back on two wheels..). For the purposes of this issue, I'm going to focus mostly on bicycle racing (road & track) - else this will become very long indeed... The Awesome Bikepaths FTW If you're a road cyclist (or, landsväg in Swedish) and a fan of long, straight, sweeping routes this place is fantastic. I was never much of a climber, I'm not really built that way (certainly not now!). Here it's like I have a second chance . This may be a controversial statement but there basically aren't any what I would call "hills" here. Ther
