This Saturday my friends and I were hiking. And yes I saw my first snow this winter season.

It was a great day.

It wasn’t that much but it you could smell it in the air the winter is coming and the darkness is arriving earlier…

nobody was on the peak

See you LENE

Last week I had my first no training week. Okay honestly it wasn’t completely free. I was trampoline jumping with Lisa on Tuesday and Yoga on Thursday. The trampoline is a performance of friendship duty and Yoga is a new thing for me which I try and enjoy. In this 90 minutes I am so focussed on my body and my energy that I forget about everything else at least if forces me to do it. And my stretch ability isn’t very good… So yoga is good to work on it.

I also used the week to work on my Baccalaureates writings which I have to do to finish my studies completely. I will fly on the 27th to Newzealnd to train there and race with Mister Crow… Fuffy Fu. I wasn’t sure at the beginning if I should fly because I want to finish the writings before I leave but I think I can make it and so I have also pressure on me to work hard and permanent on it. Oen topic is about the concept, strategies, approaches and possibilities in Sponsor acquisition for individual athletes and the other topic is about sports competition planning with long journeys (jetlag…Logistic stuff etc…)

With both topics I am all the time confronted so I “enjoy” it on a way to write about it. I can slip a lot of experiences in my work.

This morning I drove my parents to the airport and on that why I saw this pylon. In the last second I decided to make a picture of it and I was surprised that I got that shot. I love it.

Klick on the picture…. Lauryn Hill.. a new song I like.

On that way I want to say thanks to Trek for the support and the bikes. Goodbye Trek -

Hello Morewood. This company is grounded in 1998 in South Africa by Patrick Morewood. With Richard Carter’s help it grew and morewood frames count now to the best downhill frames in the world. And I for me it is a privilege to ride with this bike next season. The goal was to built a frame which is light and works simple. With the SPI system I think I will take it like a duck to water….I can’t await it to get my frame.

Next year I will be still on Michelin tires, Marzzocchi forks, Sun Rims, San marco saddles, Thomson seatposts and steams, Shimano cranks dereilleurs, Sombrio race clothes, Six Six One protection, DVS shoes, Iriedaily casual clothes, Rsp grease for my bike, Generali insurance company, Acros head set,
What new is, is Syncros and maybe Formula.

The next days I have a important sponsor meeting and there I will see if I can afford me to travel to New Zealand from December to February.

see you LENE
