Mörksuggejakten is the winner
When I wrote that I would not do Mörksuggejakten, it didn't feel all that great because that is one race I was actually looking forward to. But now the choice was made easy. I have still not been paid for June but it is supposed to come in tomorrow. But tomorrow after work I was supposed to leave for Rättvik to see Arcade Fire and then continue up to Trysilrittet. But banks do not generally work by logic so there is no guarantee I will have money tomorrow either. To avoid fees on hotels, I had to cancel the whole thing today. Bläää
On the up side, now I can do Mörksuggejakten instead! After all my high-altitude training in Norway (okay, 500m is not THAT high), Vidablick should go very smoothly but I still need to work on my gravel technique so I don't fly off the trail in that fast downhill part. Then I can just sit back and enjoy the wonderful Dala landscape. But not so much that I lose time. This is still my best race so it's time to set a new PB.
