Iceland

After the very nice experiences in Africa climging the Kili, going on safari and diving, it was time to consider next years vacation. I have done a lot of cool things on vacation, but somehow I come to like the less ordinary things more and more. So what’s next… not another mountain, diving or safari, that’s too much like the previous year (though nice and on the list for future vacations). After some thinking I combined mountainbiking (which I do regularly) with Iceland, because I wanted to go there for quite some time already and the idea was there… Traveling through Iceland by mountainbike. And so we did. On August 7, 2009 we (Bjorn, Frank, Wouter, Yonathan and me) left for our Iceland experience and the rest is history.
