biking around stockholm

[zehade]

Hejhej,

jag hejter Christian och jag kommer från tyskland. Jag är in Stockholm av augusti för ett år.

Sorry, thats all my swedisch for now. Im studying architecture an im going to spend an exchange year at the Kth in Stockholm starting in August and im going to bring my beloved bike with me. I hope my swedisch will be better by then ;-)

It would be nice if someone could give me some info about where to bike and so on. Im riding a Commencal Meta 5 and some Trails would be good!

cool! my first advice is never leave the bike outside :P next one is go bring it to Hellas forest on a tusday or just a sunny day. Sthlm have so many good biking spots so u will have lots of fun

You dont need to be worry about the riding, there is lots of excellent riding close to stockholm and your Meta is just the right bike for the trails. Swedish is not needed for riding.. ;)

Do you have any choice when it comes to where you are going to live?

 

[olzone]

we should make a list of "if in sthlm 1 year not to miss spotts" ..

first on the list is:

1: Hellas forest - just go anytime, u will meet bikers

(fyll på!)

Hej,

thanks alot for the tips, i was a bit worried as i heared the area around Stockholm was not a good location for mountainbiking, but now im looking forward going there ;)
We cannot choose where to live and i dont know yet where ill end up, but hopefully somewhere close to citycentre or the university.
Maybe ill see some of you when im there ;)
