From trail to epic fail.
My local trails outside my House at Langenes in Søgne, Kristiansand. Norway.
I was diagnosed with terminal advanced kidney cancer in April 2023. Over the past year, I’ve been on life-prolonging medication that will stop working soon. I bought myself an eMTB in the summer of 2024 to enjoy my health while I still have it. Here’s one of my rides—I plan to keep riding as much as I can throughout the winter since I don’t know if I’ll be healthy enough to stay active next summer. I wholeheartedly recommend electric mountain biking—it gives you an incredible sense of achievement from day one.
“I am deeply grateful for the Norwegian public healthcare system and welfare model. It has given me access to life-prolonging treatment and the support needed to focus on living life to the fullest during such a challenging time. Knowing that I don’t have to worry about medical expenses or support makes a world of difference, and I don’t take that for granted.
Seize the day!
