This year it was time to head out to Nuppola again.

Tour de Näsijärvi

Last weekend it was time to put the metal to the pedal, for a little ride in the Pirkanmaa region. The weather and the scenery were really nice; all in all a good ride!


The start was in Tampere, where we run into this really old-skool fixie. Would've been nice to try it, but unfortunately I lacked the proper moustacche!



At the way-stops we received sports drink and chocolate, but this stop also featured blueberry soup and accordion entertainment :)

Somewhere out there

Same Hot Bat channel, same Hot Bat time next year, eh?
Have a good summer. And hey hey hey hey! Get out there and ride, dammit!

peace
