Early in the morning outside Motala. Daniel Edman is anxious to get away.
The mortal hot dog pose: Daniel Edman, Andreas Wallmark and Mårten Ajne. The new swedish word "dödskorv" was invented as we drove down from Stockholm the evening before.
The ice was like a marble floor. No one of us had ever skated on such frictionless ice before.
At some places the ice had patterns that looked like mother-of-pearl inlay.
The ice from the southern part of the lake had been pressed into/onto/under the ice of the northen part.
The fantastic ice made that we could skate in 30-35 km/h speed without strain.
0 km/h.
We could have skated on the marble-like ice the whole day but to make the tour a little more adventurous we decided to try to reach the island Jungfrun.
The way to the island Jungfrun went over both thin ice and ice like this.
The ice cake from the south had crashed into the island Jungfrun and built a 3 meter high wall.
Lunch on the island Jungfrun.
Later that day, heading north. From left: Ulf Haase, Mårten Ajne, Daniel Edman and Andreas Wallmark.
