Engineered and Geared

Been busy with moving and starting a new job, but finally had time to hop on my #mtb and explore the city! . . . #mountainbike #trek #superfly #crosscountry #xc #mountainbiking #biking #cycling #bicycling #bicycle #cycle

Taken on the last winter ride for this year, spring is finally here and the trails are getting too soft to ride on until the snow melts. Can't wait for the summer ☀️ . . . #mtb #bicycling #cycling #mtblife #wintercycling #winterbiking #winterfun #winter #snow #forest #outdoors #spring #selfie

What's better than a chilly winter ride~ . . . #mtb #bicycle #mountainbike #trek #superfly #crosscountry #xc #mountainbiking #biking #cycling #bicycling #mtblife #wintercycling #winterbiking #winterfun #winter #snow #frozen #icy #trails #trees #outdoors #winter #nofilter

Such a pretty day. Also, made a spectacular belly flop over the bars after the front wheel slipped off the snow covered "bridge" and hit the edge of the ditch. Luckily the snow was quite soft 😂 . . . #mtb #bicycle #mountainbike #trek #superfly #crosscountry #xc #mountainbiking #biking #cycling #bicycling #mtblife #wintercycling #winterbiking #winterfun #winter #snow #forest #outdoors #nofilter #fail

What a beautiful day. No signs of snow starting to melt anytime soon though, spring, hurry up! 😛 . . . #mtb #bicycle #mountainbike #trek #superfly #crosscountry #xc #mountainbiking #biking #cycling #bicycling #mtblife #wintercycling #winterbiking #winterfun #winter #snow #forest #outdoors #nofilter

It was a nippy -18°C today, a bit cold for a ride but that didn't slow me down much. The new 11-speed XT drivetrain is proving to be bulletproof; no issues with shifting whatsoever. If the same just could be said about the suspension fork however... . . . #mtb #bicycle #mountainbike #crosscountry #xc #mountainbiking #biking #cycling #bicycling #mtblife #wintercycling #winterbiking #winterfun #winter #snow #frozen #icy #trees #selfie

I find it quite cool that you can find an isolated feeling pond and campfire site in the middle of a mid-sized city. Finland has its perks 🇫🇮 . . . #mtb #bicycle #mountainbike #trek #superfly #crosscountry #xc #mountainbiking #biking #cycling #bicycling #mtblife #wintercycling #winterbiking #winterfun #winter #snow #frozen #icy #pond #trees #forest #outdoors #nature

Went for a ride today; tried hard enough to crash a couple of times too 😁 Also mail brought some tools, finally I can fix the poorly running bottom bracket and bleed the brakes 😛 . . . #mtb #bicycle #mountainbike #trek #superfly #crosscountry #xc #mountainbiking #biking #cycling #bicycling #mtblife #wintercycling #winterbiking #winterfun #winter #snow #frozen #icy #trails #trees #outdoors #nature #bridge

Running 5k in - 23°C might freeze your eye lashes together but still feels great in the end 👌 . . . #running #run #winterrun #winterrunning #winterfun #winter #snow #frozen #icy

I love the snow on the trees, makes the scenery so... Wintery? ❄️🌨️ . . . #mtb #bicycle #mountainbike #trek #superfly #crosscountry #xc #mountainbiking #biking #cycling #bicycling #mtblife #wintercycling #winterbiking #winterfun #winter #snow #frozen #icy #trails #trees #outdoors #nature

After weeks of being too busy and stressed with life, finally had time to go for a ride. Too bad the trails weren't quite open yet after the blizzard we had a few days ago, but it was still great fun. . . #mtb #bicycle #mountainbike #trek #superfly #crosscountry #xc #mountainbiking #biking #cycling #bicycling #mtblife #wintercycling #winterbiking #winterfun #winter

Took the new drivetrain on its maiden voyage. Turned out I left the chain just a tad bit too long which caused some random chain slip. Other than it worked like a charm, much better than the old one for sure 😎 . . #mtb #mountainbiking #mountainbike #winterbiking #wintercycling #winter #trails #trees #forest #outdoors #nature #winterfun #nofilter

The first ride of the year also included the first crash of the year. Went spectacularly over the bars 😂 . . . #mtb #mountainbike #mountainbiking #cycling #biking #winterbiking #wintercycling #otb #crash #winter

This month has turned out to be very expensive so far. First, I bought myself and my bike a Christmas present in the form of a fully new drivetrain to replace the worn out one. That was pricey on its own but to make matters worse my old trusty Nexus 5X bootlooped and died so had to upgrade to a Motorola moto G5S plus. Thus picture quality might be slightly different from now on. . #bicycle #mountainbike #mtb #upgrade #shimano #xt #smartphone #phone #motorola #g5s #newphone #newstuff #nofilter

Went on the last run of the year in #bc #canada. Just a quick 4 km run with nearly 200 meters of elevation gain which made the run much tougher. Especially for someone like me who is used to flatter terrain. Gotta enjoy the terrain and beautiful landscapes while I can. . . #running #run #winterrun #winterrunning #britishcolumbia #mountains #lake #snow #frozen #ice #winter (at British Columbia)

Breathtaking views in British Columbia, Canada 🇨🇦 On a vacation here till mid January, so have a merry Christmas and a happy new year everyone! 🎄 . . . #nature #mountains #outdoors #beautifulweather #sunny #britishcolumbia #bc #canada #rockies #nofilter
