Number 33: Finally Stockholm!

July 15 2007

Hello!


I finally arrived in Stockholm! With my bike almost disasembling, but I did it! The gears started to broken, getting loosing in the old teeth of the gears. I first loose seven gears, then more seven, and finally I had to work on a improvisation to be able to cycle with at least one gear, the second lowest one, the one used to climb mountains, that made me pedal like a mad guy in the flat places. But we did it, me and Inocencia, and I think she realises that she could relax when we arrived in Stockholm, because then her front rack broke! She was brave, bringing me and 50 Kg of luggage from Stockland to here!
Cheers!
