Kinda sucks but it's alright anyway. I love riding in the snow, much better than the humid summer.
I have two. Well three if you count the one I use for parts but that one is almost stripped to the bone by now. A lot of people use snowmobiles as their primary transportation method up here in the winter.

>Thank fuck I live in Norrland Same, but I have no car. I walk to work.
Except for the killer climate is pretty ok I'd say.

Ottawa's about the same population as Stockholm but 1.5x the urban area size. We just got a new LRT, everyone's been loving it, it's such a step up from busses. I don't even use it, but I'm just happy it's there and relieves east-west traffic
They're nice if they manage to stay on schedule. Having to wait over 20 minutes for a train at -20 celsius is a bitch
Leo Ross
Amalie Wichmann is Danish. Danes don't get much snow.
Joshua Wilson
That's a perfectly normal work schedule, you are just an irresponsible failure or a neet which is honestly the same thing. Don't bother replying to my post
>Yamaha Phazer Sweet. Me and my brother ride on two Polaris Titan SP's. Great machines. We have a cabin quite a bit up north and we needed the reliability so it was worth it. It's a long ride up there.
How can meds beat nords if the latter undergo training under harsh, inhospitable climate conditions every year?
Jackson Gonzalez
they explicitly delayed the construction numerous times last year because it gets down to -40°C here during the winter with windchill, and if trains fail with people outside, bad things happen
Benjamin Allen
comfy
Julian Morgan
march wagie, march!
Wyatt Sanders
Every new piece or rolling stock we gets fucks up in winter because they're designed for dry snowless places like Austria or Switzerland.
Zachary Perez
>bow doesn't rhyme
Levi Scott
Not him but it has been snowing here in Värmland for a few days. Woke up to this. It's fucking September...
I believe it, we ordered Alstom french trains, hopefully they designed them properly, although I believe the actual infrastructure was developed by a canadian collective firm, though who knows where they sourced things from. It's only been open for about a week, we'll see how it fares its first winter
Elijah Nelson
uhh that fishing thing I don't know what to call it in English we call it drag looks just like the one my dad uses. fishing lure maybe?

Justin Taylor
Do swedes not understand the concept of salt?
Ryan Smith
itt swedes trying to act as if they are northern country. Maybe you were but not anymore. Sweden is pretty warm now even during winter. I'm saying it as someone who has been both in Sweden and Siberia several times.
Justin Smith
It's called a crank bait, or lure, that one is a Hot 'n Tot, hottentot means stutterer in Dutch, so they made similar name because the lure stutters
Levi Howard
Yes and she is an escort - but plenty of Swedes and Norwegians who also love that stuff.
Carter Rodriguez
this only lappland is northern
Angel Martinez
Interesting. We call some Africans hottentottar (the small ones)
Wyatt Ortiz
We live just outside of Kiruna. There is trees but they don't grow very large. The landscape is very, harsh I guess you could call it.
Pic related is nearby and also where I work at the moment. Gives you a good idea of the surrounding landscape. We are above the arctic circle.
Yeah let's salt everything and turn the roads into a brown/grey disgusting mush that rusts cars and ruins everything...
We've ordered heaps of Alstoms and trialed them in Lapland, but it wasn't enough. Long story short, if your vehicle survives Stockholm it can do anything anywhere. Stockholm has a special kind of moisture that will seep into anything and fuck it up. Our recent venture into CAF trams involved replacing all moving or electric parts, at least they're not italian.
Lucas Miller
>Do swedes not understand the concept of salt? We do, and it sucks. Better to just leave the snow alone. Instead my town pours out tons of salt every winter, ruining the white & comfy snowy roads and turn them into pic related.. Which by the way, later freezes into ice since the salt loses it effectiveness when the temperature drops below -10... Whoever decided that salt was a good idea should be kicked in the balls.
road salt is a cancer, it destroys the used car market, it makes rocker panels look like rusty swiss cheese.
Sand is better, but requires more service and isn't as preventative, so the gubmint would rather just rot everyone's cars so that they can charge 13% sales tax on every new SUV or F-150 leased for $800/mo.
Josiah Allen
Not worth it. It looks like that maybe one week every year in Stockholm.
Brody Kelly
Salt works in the southern parts of Sweden. In the north it's pointless, it freezes anyway.
Mason Davis
Sand is even worse than salt because it gets so fuckin dusty and dirty everywhere in spring. I've heard that in Finland they use some small rocks, which may be the most sensible solution.
Liam Sanchez
Lapland seems to be very similar to Ottawa, so that might not be a good sign. Hopefully the dryness during winter prevents moisture issues rather be dusty than rusty in spring. Also, salt makes everything look like grey puke for 6 months of the year, it's much worse IMO
This. Road salt is horrible. I live in Lapland and they don't salt the roads up here, and they only sand/gravel them inside the cities. It's so much better. Whenever I drive down south (where they love road salt..) in winter I have to give my car a massive wash after or it will rust like crazy. The roads here in Lapland usually just looks like my pic.
But then again, if you start a company and become your own boss, on top of biting your nails if you can make the company profitable, you have to mind millions of pages of laws and regulations and pay taxes for sandnigger welfare. Can you blame a common man for just selling 8 hours of his day to not think about anything else? Is the employer the bigger jew than the government?
Hunter Robinson
What about above ground roofs in the roads protecting roads from.snow?
Grayson Watson
It wouldn't work here in the south, people are too stressed and there's too much traffic. I've lived in Lapland and people took their time and there wasn't much traffic.
Nathan Smith
North looks comfy
Landon Russell
don't know why the image name didn't change, that one was for Rovaniemi. This one's for Ottawa people often buy old shitboxes as winter beaters, and keep their nicer, newer cars for the other 6 months. Unfortunately, it's like a holocaust for 90s jap beaters
I get so jealous when I see my cousins cars from Oklahoma because they have no rust. Working on cars would be so easy if they didn't rust.
Some places are experimenting with molasses and beets as a de-icer for roads
Ryan Howard
>I've heard that in Finland they use some small rocks We do that as well. Tiny gravel. My first job was actually that, I drove around in a tractor and graveled all the sidewalks and bike lanes in the mornings.
That would be pretty darn long roofs. Imagine Montana. Now you have the idea of the amount of bumfucking nowhere there is in the northern 2/3 of Sweden.
Isaac Richardson
But user, how will Målin who has reflexes of a sloth, almost no driving skill and doesn't know how to put on chains drive herself to work and drop off her kids without road salt?
Gabriel Perry
In Sweden we have to use winter tires by law so she has no excuse.
John Hall
Yeah, upgrading all the roads with roofs that get snow
Asher Taylor
That would prevent snow or rain from.hitting the road.
Asher Parker
I prefer Russia
David Peterson
>Working on cars would be so easy if they didn't rust. Amen to that.I know your pain, I live in rust hell aka southern Sweden and cars literally fall apart here. 2-3 year old models, reduced to nothing but rust.. Owners be like >"yeah but you can fix it over night, right?"
You guys used to have a porn actress Linda Thoren and she was my Danish friend said she was Swede trailer trash for the north.
She can to LA and did lots of some interracial scenes. In Sweden she received some workman's compensation from the government because her anus prolapsed during a scene with Rocco Sifrredi; it was rules a work injury.
Some one posted a picture of her on /b a few years ago, and she was working at an old folks retirement house in the north of Sweden.
Juan Stewart
Yup. Northern Sweden = moonshine, guns, hunting, 4x4, diesel, V8's and stuff like that. I was born and raised here kek.
>Swedes is the far north of Sweden for Rednecks? More or less. Mostly working class towns built around industry, not entirely unlike America.
Jace Sullivan
vafan har ni så mycket snö runt påsk? här i söder äre ingenting
John Torres
but in sweden most "rednecks" so to speak vote to the left, as the socialist party and the social democrats has a lot of support in the north
Eli Peterson
Vi har snöstormar mitt i sommaren för fan. Men normala snötäcket ligger från Oktober till Maj
Hunter Morris
Because they're working class and don't experience diversity
Adrian Powell
From the 25-30 or so people I know here in and around Gällivare I know one thing for sure. Not a single one of us actually vote.
Anthony Miller
but in the u.s the rednecks vote republican no?
Brody Carter
one rusty bolt can make a 10 minute job into an hour long shit fest
Hunter Campbell
yeah but if you look on the actual results the left is still strong, mostly because of what he said:
Eli Hernandez
Rusted lug lugs. That the owners have over-tightened to begin with. I wanna kill my self just thinking about it. Not even the impact wrench helps, just snaps the damn thing in half.
Jaxon Foster
>Rusted lug lugs. Hmm. Lug nuts. My brain not smart today
People in Norrland remindes me a lot the southern folks in the States. I've been all over both places and I'll tell you one thing. The incest is real..
thats what real winter looks like. i live in trondheim where they salt everything during winter and people hate it. i sometimes wonder if they dont understand the difference between coastal winters and real winter or they just have short memory? when i first moved here, before they started salting, a comfy 15min bus ride in summer turned into 30min of pure hell during winter. snow chains gave the bus 40kmh top speed and it was constantly rattling and shaking and the noise was unbelievable. all streets in the city center was made out of thick ice with huge holes everywhere. if you stopped at a red light in one of them you where lucky to get going again. coastal climate with temperatures jumping from -5 and 1m snow one day to +10 and rain the next day and then -15 for a week creates shit driving conditions in cities, salt does wonders with it. now the hipsters can ride their bikes and scooters all year and buses are rarely delayed.
James Roberts
The guy on the left looks like my brother kek, same clothes and everything
Salt does make a difference in the right conditions, that is true. Here in Lapland there's really no point since it's too cold and people don't need it. Luckily enough the government realized this and don't use road salt. There was a big debate in the city council where I live about if they should salt sidewalks and such but most people voted against it. Why would you wanna salt pic related? There's literally no need for it.
>Are guys like this considered true Swedish? True and true, he was born in Stockholm making him at least second generation Swedish. That's good enough for most people.
Julian Ward
>They look like the Amish Northern Sweden attracts a lot of nature loving people. Land is cheap, nature is beautiful and people can live in peace.
Nathaniel Reed
well it depends on who you ask, but like what he said: but we have a lot of second generation immigrants who definitely cant be counted as swedish since theyve grown up in the ghetto, away from swedish people and our customs, espinosa probably grew up with other swedes and as long as youre culturally swedish so to speak, most people dont care how you look
