Why is our country so boring
It’s not. I lived in Finland for over a year including two winters, and my local riding area looked mostly like that. The riding was superb – rolling fire-roads connecting single track with lots of woodwork across bogs in impossibly beautiful forests and lakes. But that’s all it was, all the time. I came back to Wales a couple of times and I was overwhelmed with joy being able to ride up a big mountain and hammer down some long rocky descents, whilst actually being able to see a long way.
Point is, loads of place are beautiful and don’t look down on what you have just because you’re used to it.
Also remember that guy’s in Northern Sweden which is miles away from anywhere – the equivalent of the Scottish Highlands in UK terms which aren’t dissimilar, really. The Highlands are wetter though, can’t really argue with that 🙂
