The land of the midnight sun


Those nice people at Transitions have invited me to Sweden this weekend to take part in the Halvvattern, 150km cycle sportive near Motala.
Although this is not a hilly route it will enable me to get some much needed miles in my legs before the Alpe d'Huez.
I must admit that I'm quite excited about going to Sweden. The only extent of my time there was a transfer at Stockholm while on my way to Finland so I'll be interested to see what the countryside is like.
I also have a personal goal to see the northern lights. Not too sure I will achieve this one given that there is unlikely to be any night time at all while I'm there.
