It´s funny how life tumbles around and throw incidents and relations at you. In this picture you see one of my outmost best friends, Jørn, and my brother Henrik behind him. I met Jørn probably about 4-5 years ago, and we´ve had a fruitful friendship eversince. And not to mention a helluva lot good rides together. So many highlights, that I´m still floating on them.Such a great personality.
Through me, he has met my brother, and they are both kinda race-heads. So last year, they decided that they would participate in a 6-stage mountainbike race from Tronheim to Oslo, a total length of about 570k´s. Insane, I know, but that´s how it is.
So this weekend was a test, sortof. Since we have a cabin at Oppdal, they wanted to ride the first stage, to get a hang of it. 150k´s later, I met them to photograph them on the last part befor our cabin. To see them blazing over the hills like a train is amazing. I have such great respect for these two guys. They are so professional in what they do, and most of all, true athletes.
Since I´ll probably never reach the same level in strength and professionality, it is so good that I can contribute in other ways. So I´ll go with them to Oslo, by car, to support with nutrition and mechanical help. Good for them, and it makes me feel like I´m a part of the team, that´s great. The race starts in one week from now, and I´m sure it´ll be a great journey no matter what happens!
Perhaps I should go back to editing pictures for my client now?
