Photo Essay from Gothenburg, Sweden

Here’s a big photo essay from Gothenburg Sweden, 25 photos with the Nomad 3 in action. Enjoy!

Photo Essay: “This Is Gothenburg”

Merry Christmas to all! /Leo

Good job Leo! Doing us proud !

Nice, like the neat rear guard too 😉

Approve. Thanks.

Very nice – thanks for posting. Worth a trip over there methinks:)

p.s. What’s the beta on the rear guard BTW? Is it a home made job?, if so, it looks a real proper job.

Very nice, shall bookmark this thread as I often get a day off in Gothenburg.

Is that now? When I was living there it would be well covered with snow at this time of year. Du hade en väldig god tid där!

Thanks! This photo essay was shot during late August to end of October. Right now we got plenty of rain and mud. Hopefully the winter is coming and we also get some days with snow and ice soon. The biking here is great all year around. The mud and rain makes you just stronger. 🙂

This is what the trails can look like right now, we shot this video exactly two years ago:

The rear mudguard is actually a front Mudhugger FR. It fits perfectly on the Nomad just like that. Four zip ties and it’s secured. The only modification was done by the chain, which did wear away a small bit of the mudguard near the chainstay. https://www.themudhugger.com

Love the video.

Not a single mention of Änggården which is practically slap bang in the city centre and is full of miles of easy to find trails…

As I wrote in the essay: “There are 10 main areas for mountain biking in Gothenburg, and in this photo essay we have covered five of them. Each area has a huge trail network, and some of them would require weeks of exploration.”

Änggården (or Änggårdsbergen) is one of the ten “main” areas for mountain biking in Gothenburg[/url]. Loads of trails there too, little more crowded with people and horses. Here’s a map over the ten areas in Gothenburg:

good stuff.

Nice one Leo – thanks for the mud hugger info.
