About me
Personally I'm a crazy girl who loves everything that you can drive! I grew up in Gräsmyr as a member of a family which love snowmobiles and snow cross. My brother, Robert Fransson, has also been successful while he competed in snow cross, motocross and quad but he has stopped competing now - so I've got the responsibility to carry on the torch and the honour of the family name!
My fiancé Alex is wonderful and really supportive of me, since he's my driver, babysitter and mechanic, all at the same time! Without him, nothing of this would have been possible. When I'm not busy with snow cross I drive my yz 250f on the cross tracks during the summer to stay in shape. Otherwise, you can find me on my knees in the grass, studying bugs of all kinds - I love everything that has to do with animals and insects!
But above all, I'm a proud mother of the worlds greatest and cutest Leo, who is 1,5 years old! He's exactly like his mom and dad, totally crazy, in other words! He has grown up on the race tracks and his favourite thing to do is riding a snowmobile, cross or tractor :)

This season 07/08
I've had my share of bad beats the past year, since I first broke my ankle last summer, and then broke a part of my knee in December - just when the real snow cross season was about to begin. If I'd followed my doctors' orders I wouldn't have competed at all during the whole season, but since I'm determined to be the best I did it anyway!
Sadly, I wasn't able to work out as I'd hoped and needed before the Swedish Championship - but I made it to the final and ended as number five. Not too bad for someone who barely has been able to work out at all, right? I've also been in Norway and entered the Nordic Championship, where I became the first runner up! And to finish it all off I also entered the European Championship and reached the goal as number three. Unfortunately, this is just the unofficial European Championship since there are too few professional snow cross drivers which are women, but that doesn’t make me any less proud of my achievement!
Come to think of it, as good as it has gone for me this season... Just imagine what I can accomplish next season - free from injuries and well prepared!
