We both failed big time!

So, neither me or my sister managed to complete the last challenge - a bit embarrassing if you ask me. I'm sure that we both have tons of excuses as to why, I just think that none of them are good enough. If we want to raise money then we need to make an effort and take the time to do it, so shame on us!

Since both of us lost we both need to put €20 into the collection!

The next challenge is under consideration, we have agreed that it need to be an indoor one due to the snow, cold and general Scandinavian weather. The final details need to be ironed out before it is published to the general population, watch this space!

A nice little snowstorm got in the way!

Yesterday I had a date with one of my friends to Christmas decorate my bike and go for a ride, anything to win over my sister!

Yesterday the weather gods thought that it would be nice with a little snowstorm! Needless to say that the decorations have to wait

We did get another donation though, which is amazing!

What was I thinking?

Usually in December the weather in the South-western parts of Sweden is perhaps cold, rainy and windy. Occasionally there is also snow, a centimeter or two that usually disappears after a day or two. So the nice little Christmas-challenge would be very do-able. This year however it started snowing on the second of December and it hasn't stopped. Today is a beautiful day, clear skies, fresh air, ten centimeters of snow glowing and sparkling in the sun, and minus 18 degrees Celsius. To be able to bike in this weather you need dubs on your bike (which I don't have), a good balance (nope, don't got that either), clothes that you are able to bike in (my winter clothes makes me feel like the Micheline-man, so no, they don't work).
And first of all I need to dig out my bike, since i forgot to take it down to the garage.
No, this challenge is not going well, wonder how sister is doing?

A beautiful Sunday Morning

This Sunday morning I woke up to a heavy snowfall and another donation for our collection, this far we have managed to raise €240 which is absolutely amazing!

Looking at how the snow just keep falling I am happy that it is next Sunday that I have a date with my friend to decorate the bike and go for a long ride, as per sisters latest challenge. I already have the Christmas lights ready, all I need is to buy batteries. Not sure what else I should use for decoration, that is why I have called in the experts!
