Hey,
I'm headed out to Stockholm... was thinking about trying to find a bike to ride while I was out there and see if I could perhaps spend a few days touring around a bit.
Has anyone ever done this or does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions...
Thanks in advance!
I'm in neighbour country Norway, but I still recommend Sweden.
You will have to travel a bit out of Stockholm to find interesting roads.
I suggest going North West - less people, traffic and [leo]
One of the sites I found http://www.mcvaruhuset.se/page_contents.php?id=50# (http://www.mcvaruhuset.se/page_contents.php?id=50#)
Typically it's about $ 500 Fri - Mon and double that for a full week. 250 miles included and another 45 cents per additional mile. It's the insurrance that makes this expensive. Gear for another $ 50 a day. From $ 800 - 1,700 if there is any damage to the bike. License and passport required. Pay by Visa or Mastercard.
If you search for other places, it's called "mc" and "uthyrning" / "hyra".
I know someone in Austin who wants to do this!
Going to be an awesome adventure!
yeah Sweden is a great country, have to get away from Stockholm a bit to find some interesting roads though. For closest, try the coastal towns along the east coast. It ain't the PCH, but you get a nice little tour through some quaint swedish towns.

No, the 1,6 km mile.
I do my magical calculations and come up with this nonsense ;D
BTW: we call 10 km "en (one) mil" (pronounced like a meal)
