All My Love Is Gone

This morning i went as far as putting together and published a personal ad or in Swedish Kontaktannons. You might ask yourself why and all sorts of things, but the truth is that i am a bit bored being single and not finding someone to love as much as i love riding my bike. I guess i just want to share my passion with someone, someone that hopefully understands why cycling on Eurosport is such a wonderful things to watch.

Anyway, i guess you all are interested in what i wrote in my kontaktannons (some Swedish there, again) and i will tell you, but there is a twist, it’s all in Swedish and since you expect it to be in English, well sorry, it ain’t !

This is my first and most likely my last personal ad or as we swedes call it, Kontaktannons :
Finnes : (Available)
En Programmering och Tatuerings älskade galenpanna med cykel och naturupplevelse mani i form av träning minst fyra mil om dagen söker kärleken. Är en kramgo teddybjörn med stort hjärta och massor med passion för musik och film. Lever livet genom sin cykel, sin musik och sina filmer. Njuter av trevliga stunder och spelar mer än gärna “allan” för att få en reaktion.

Sökes : (Seeking)
Kvinna som inte är rädd för att anta en utmaning och sätta sig på cykeln och hänga med på mannens galna upptåg. Njuter även och ser skönheten i vacker kod och tatueringar samt har lika stor passion för musik och film som teddybjörnen på bilden ovan. Vackra och spännande ögon är ett krav. Stämmer det in på dig, så för guds skull, hör av dig.

So what do you think, is it good enough ? Is it a compressed life story or just some wishes from an empty heart ?

Well, if you are nice, then i might translate the words into english, just so that everyone can understand what it’s all about. That however will come at a later time. Not this month anyway.

As many of the people who read this blog, knows that i’m a bit of a cycling nerd. Some also know that cycling is also one of the best ways to train while you enjoy stunning scenery and open roads. However, my start-up this year hasn’t turned out the way i like it to.

A week ago i crashed and i took a fairly unscheduled flight over the handlebars and ended up at the hospital with torn ligaments and muscles in my left shoulder. This happened ironical enough on the way home from work., so the speed wasn’t as high as it used to be when i’m training. But, i gave me a scare and also crumbled my Glan Runt ride which was to take place on.

So now i have to look forward to 3 months of rehab and getting my muscles back to working order. It hasn’t been the best start-up, but things are meant to be fixed and i have set a goal that some would say is impossible, but i do not care. Right now my bike is at the repair shop and getting fixed. I have to change a few components and do a check-up that all things are in working order.

The current plan and road to recovery is as follows :
- Start biking in 2 weeks, slow and easy to feel how it feels
- Continue to ride the exercise bike after work
- Start my rehab exercises, which i have to do

After i have regained my strength and the ability to use my shoulder, then i will take part in a few races this summer. More on those and other things in another post.

It’s fairly old, but still as good as it was the first time i heard it. The track is so simple but so effective and just wonderful. Listen to it, very loud !!

Queens of the Stone Age - No One Knows (Live on Jools Holland)

Lyrics :
We get some rules to follow
That and this
These and those
No one knows

We get these pills to swallow
How they stick
In your throat
Tastes like gold

Oh, what you do to me
No one knows

And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
Ahh

I journey through the desert
Of the mind
With no hope
I found low

I drift along the ocean
Dead lifeboats in the sun
And come undone

Pleasently caving in
I come undone

And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool of mine
And I realize you’re mine
Indeed a fool and mine
Ahhh

Heaven smiles above me
What a gift there below
But no one knows

A gift that you give to me
No one knows
