ATV Racing..




In the early 90s me and my twin brother started racing our ATV’s in the Icelandic Championship series. Well actually we started the series by convincing the Motocross championship comity to let us compete on the MX tracks. The events in those days where not sponsored and the level of security and other things where at minimum ;o) But it was fun and I can’t recall any accidents during this period. After a few years of racing most of the guys went riding off-road or MX bikes and the ATV series was dropped! A great period in our lives with many great people and lots of fun both on and off track!

Friday Metal...



Blood Red Throne from Kristansand her in Norway is one of the best Death Metal bands around. The guys are amazing artists and musicians! I went to see them for the first time in December 2009 and they blew me away! The band has been around for some 10 odd years now and they have 5 full studio albums out. The last one called “Souls Of Damnation” is an awesome album that every death metal fan with self respect should have in his or hers collection!

Euro bikes...






A few pictures, of bikes that I like, that have participated in the European Championship of Bike Building. I like the European style in bike building better than the American because they actually ride their bikes. (Not so many trailer queens over here ;o)
The Swedish style is always cool and I love the bikes “Greven” at Hogtech makes.
These pictures are from the 2006 and 2007 championship. All photos taken by one of Europe’s best motorcycle photographer Horst Rösler.
What can I say? Choppers Rule!
