Oulu Sports & Outdoors

Well, people never stop learning in their life. Today I learned something special: There exists a sport called Frisbee-Golf. I was biking and saw some people throwing frisbees and then I realized that they were aiming at something. So I asked them if they play some sort of Golf and indeed that is what the sport is called.
So it works the following way. Like normal golf there is a wide area with tracks. These have to be managed by throwing your disc. Instead of holes in the ground the goal is to get the frisbee into baskets.
At the parking there were some papes hanging out andI found out that there is even a club here in Oulu, which hosts that Frisbee-Golf track.

Equipment: A frisbee

Oulu has become famous throughout Finland for its cycling network. It gained recognition for its network of tracks, which cross the mouth of the river, and the Finnish Traffic Association nominated them as Bicycle Path of the Year in autumn 1996. Oulu is part of the Finnish Cyclist Municipalities Network and the only Finnish city to be in the Cities for Cyclists Network.

Equipment: Many people, who use public transport during other times of the year, take to their bikes for the summer months. There are fewer cyclists during the winter months but a fearless band of year-round cyclists exists, both men and women, who defy the frost throughout the season. It is easy to cycle to and from work or school even in snow, as the main tracks are cleared and sanded before 7.00am Monday to Friday. The network of main streets and roads in Oulu is now virtually complete, although some of the main streets still need improvement and the network needs one or two stretches of ring road outside the city centre.
