Cross first...then Sid

I started to take off the old fork and have already run into the first problem. I always thought that the headset felt loose so that the whole thing would just fall off when I removed the handlebars. Nope. It is sitting there very tight. And there is also one of those star nuts inside so I decided to read up a bit and make sure I am doing things right before I break it.

What could I do instead? Yes, another CX pass. Just around the corner from home I met Axel and Anton leading an MTB pass with CK Master. I said hallå and kept going since I had a CX and my MCK jersey and neither would be useful in this case. Besides, my goal was some serious grass hills at Sävecrossen which today was lightly populated by some nice women out for a walk. Hmm...good time to go out for training. But women are not impressed by cyclists so maybe not.

After that I rode around Vallhamra and up to Östra before taking a little spin around some of the side streets around Mellanvägen. I found a true gem there...a short but steep som fan hill which was a beauty for 3 intervals with some cheering from a couple local children. This was a short but supereffective pass today. And spontaneous...the best kind.
