Hello from Norway

Hi!

I'm a 33 y.o. bike rider living in Oslo. I have a run-of-the-mill hybrid bike that I ride the short distance to work with year-round (and it's starting to show). It can be pretty fun riding with studded tires! I have thought about installing drop bars on it, but I haven't found a way to do that which doesn't make me think "I could just buy a gravel bike for this much money". Also I haven't found a group set for drop bars that works with 3x9 gears and disc brakes.

I also have a too-high-end-for-me road bike that I use for exercise and longer rides in my spare time, which unfortunately has been a pain in the butt recently (admittedly part of the reason I've signed up here). I've participated in the 168 km Bergen-Voss sportive four times which I really enjoyed (To the locals who know what I'm talking about: I promise the scenery is muuuch prettier than Lillehammer-Oslo ) but haven't participated in that or similar events yet since I moved here.

I'm considering buying some sort of mountain bike, but haven't looked into it very much. Not sure if I have the room for it.

That's me!

Øsse
