Hello world!

I have been toying with the idea of blogging about some aspects of my life for a while, namely hiking, cycling and making my own gear for both pursuits. Since I’m currently blessed with more free time than usual, I decided to give it a go and actually start something instead of daydreams and procrastination.

Let’s see what will follow.

Under the hood

This blog runs on Jekyll and is hosted using GitHub Pages. As a software geek and a DIY enthusiast, I couldn’t imagine anything more up to the task.

Originally I got the idea of using Jekyll from the mighty Hendrik of Hiking in Finland, although he uses Octopress to be precise. At this time, Octopress seems a bit unmaintained, so I decided to go with plain Jekyll instead.

You are most welcome to fork me on GitHub.
