This is more of a re-introduction; I was an active member about 4-5 years ago, then went inactive for a couple years... then tried to come back last year but couldn't because the password reset system didn't work for me. And neither did the new account creation.
Now that that's fixed, hello again! I guess I'll see you around in the race design thread quite a bit!

Hello everyone!

As a long-time cycling and xc-skiing fan, I've been around the forum for awhile. Although I don't post a great deal, I enjoy the discussions and I do look forward to talking to you all more.

Recently, I was at the 2023 Tour of Leuven – Memorial Jef Scherens. I really like one-day races, especially the classics and the monuments.

Being Swedish, I look forward to see how the younger Swedish cyclists develop over the next years; living in Belgium, I cannot help being interested in and excited by the Belgian and Dutch cyclists as well; and I must admit to having grown a soft spot for both Vingegaard, Pogaçar and Pedersen over the last few years.

My own cycling routine is very much on the recreational and leisurely side.

Välkommen! A Swede to balance up a bit all the Danes here. There's not a lot on the horizon here in Sweden with regards to a GT winner.

Tack så mycket!

About the potential for Swedish GT winner: regrettably true. In addition, more than twenty years since the last Tour of Sweden (Postgirot Open) and the last winner there was Danish (Kurt Asle Arvesen).

Xc skiing is a great comfort, though.
 
Hi everyone,
new to the forum but long time cycling fan; used to be active in a different - national - forum some years ago. Lately I've found myself reading the *international* one more often (national forums can be quite chauvinistic at times); so with the tour (and vacations) in sight, I'm here to enjoy some lighthearted discussions.

Favourite riders since 2000: Gibo Simoni, Andy Schleck, Tom Dumoulin. In recent seasons, Pogi of course, but Matteo Jorgenson is the rising star in my personal "big guys who can climb" list, hope to see him do well in the tour.
 
Thank you both.
Nah, I've followed the forum from behind the curtain for a while, the days of the big dramas and divisive charcters in cycling are over; Pogi and Jonas are no Simoni/Basso or Schleck/Contador :grimacing:.
