Watch this face, it's a clear face!



.. even if i am in Sweden, country in which to be professional
cyclist means moving to Denmark or other countries where
the winter is shorter..even if all the news about doping in this
sport make me think i have been fooled for many years by cyclists..

.. i cannot lose my passion for cycling!! and so in these days i
was always following the stages of Giro d'Italia (with a laptop
and internet everything is possible!) .. well today it's a great
day because today Marzio Bruseghin won .. just watch his face
and you find out by yourself why i am so happy ..

in a cycling where doping and team strategies seem to be
the only way to win, sometimes you can still have a nice
surprise .. today Marzio Bruseghin after 15 years of being a
domestique had his occasion .. he has worked hard for many
years just for the happiness to see his team leader winning
.. but not today, today he had his chance and didn't miss it!

he was born quite near my hometown .. he breeds donkeys
(his supporters always wear mokeys ears!) and loves the
nature .. he is what you call a "simple guy"..

.. today after passing the final line he was interviewed by
the national tv .. the first words he pronounced (with a very
strong dialect accent!) were .. " i want to thank Marco's
grandmother .. she told me not to shave my beard if i wanted
to win the stage today.." .. simply lovely :-)

unluckily cycling is full of "cunning" people that don't need
to have a life of sacrifice to win .. unfortunately simple
guys like Bruseghin are very few.

Poem of the day ..



Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off hand way
Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of liyng in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain
You are youg and life is long and there is time to kill today
And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run,you missed the starting gun

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking
And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way,but you're older
Shorter of breath and one day closer to death

Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time
plans that either come to naught or half page of scribbled lines
hanging on in quite desperation is the english way
The time is gone the song is over,thought i'd something more to say.


.. some don't understand this song and says it's sad and pessimistic,
some others do and catch the good message in it ..
don't waste your time, there won't always be a tomorrow!

I LOVE KOPPARSTADEN!!



It's already quite hard by itself having breakfast at 7
o' clock cause i have to run to the university for my
lesson .. but Kopparstaden, my housing-company,
knows how to make my day even harder ..

i just finished to fry my eggs and to toast the bread,
a lovely smell of "english" breakfast is spreading
all over the kitchen .. i am ready to sit down and
enjoy this wonderful food ..when, all of a sudden, 3
K-MAN (Kopparstaden employees) rush into my
kitchen carrying a strange machine ..

.. "they are gonna fix our stopped sink, that's good" ..
i think in my mind .. yes, it's good .. very very good ..
what is not good is the smell of SH** that spread all
over when they started to use that machine ..

.. not really the best beginning of a day :)


p.s. after all, it hasn't been such a bad day!
