In addition to competing, Eirik organizes summer camps, gatherings and races for trial cyclists in Norway. But what takes the most time are the shows, where he travels all over Norway with a complete show set-up, and does demonstrations and courses at everything from festivals and cycle races to conferences and trade fairs.<\/p>\n\n
