This is a totally unofficial, non-sponsored sector of the Internet. It is mainly intended for personal use, and will be updated, outdated and refined whenever I feel like it. I've tried to find some reason for this page, but all I've come up with is my need for bragging about my bikes. So I assembled some pix, some dox, and some text. Enjoy?

So, it all started way back with the Husqvarna Silverpilen and the FMCK summer camp. But it took some 5-6 years after that until I bought my first "proper" street bike in 1979. I've mainly been into touring, mixed with some offroad/enduro experiences in the early 80s. I started long-distance touring by solo trips from Kiruna (above the Arctic circle) through Europe back in 1982. Since 1990, the bike carried an extra traveller. 

I've currently got two bikes, a 1983 Yamaha XJ900 touring bike (the original Strider) and a 1970 BSA A65L, the 650 cc Lightning (please note that neither is a Harley-Davidson).

clubs

I am (and have been) a member of several clubs, the most important are possibly

• the Swedish BSA Owner's club

Some other clubs of interest:

• the Stockholm chapter of SMC.
• Rapido has a nice clubhouse in Stockholm (one prominent member is my former colleague Lars Mellgren, who also has other friends).
