Another Collserola mountain bike ride

Posted by cdamian on 22 November 2009 in English.

Very hard after spending a week in bed with the flu. I also picked some of the more difficult tracks.

Slowly it is getting more difficult to map new paths and tracks in the Collserola park, which is good and bad :-)

Connecting Barcelona and Sant Cugat

Posted by cdamian on 11 October 2009 in English.

Today I did another mountain bike ride in Collserola park. It was mostly tarmac roads, so that I can connect Barcelona and Sant Cugat by tertiary roads.

Finished it with a couple of gravel track and residential roads before my phones battery was empty. Turns out it doesn't last long if you run two GPS trackers, MP3 player and connect heart rate belt and headphones with bluetooth.

Location: Can Borrell, Sant Cugat del Vallès, Vallès Occidental, Barcelona, Catalonia, 08196, Spain

New hobby: OpenStreetMapping

Posted by cdamian on 27 September 2009 in English.

I always loved the idea behind OpenStreetMap. Mostly because of my open source experience and sites Wikipedia, these show that with enough people doing a little bit of work in the area they know, it is possible to create results which are better and more free than the conventional commercial offerings.
