      Basically, we have to be like we should always be: polite, respectful, kind.

      Good info for my trip through Sweden and Norway in June (or July?) 2023.

      Thanks

      The map resources are really incredible.
      However if i was foreign i would probably bring a little cash. Some places wont take card and only an app called Swish, and since you cant get that as a foreigner it might be a good idea to have enough cash for a meal or an emergency

      My Swedish friend summarised this into a simple sentence: Don't take anything but pictures, don't leave anything but footprints (or tyreprints when you're on your bike).

      So I find myself wanting to move to Sweden more and more. I also have a love for sport bikes. My question is would I have to give up owning a sport bike? With that much gravel it seems like I would be limiting myself.

      Mycket bra video! Tack för bra tips!
      Har letat upp lantmäteriets karta vilket verkar sjukt bra för att hitta grusvägar.
      Två saker har jag dock inte lyckats lista ut, du kanske kan hjälpa mig?
      Jag verkar inte få till så att lantmäteriets karta finns offline i appen, behöver man göra något speciellt där?
      Jag kan inte heller lista ut hur jag bäst gör GPX-filer för en rut. Jag tänker att jag vill använda lanmäteriets karta och plotta punkter för att sedan kunna generera instruktioner i gurumaps. Hur gör du?
      Vi syns i skogen!! 😀

      I moved to Sweden this month and you just answered all the questions I had before watching! Thank you incredibly much, I cannot wait before I get my motorbike here. She is still in the Netherlands and she will come to Sweden via Mongolia. (Yes you read that correctly :D)

    34. @PhT80 on

      Thanks for this!! Really useful info also to use and keep in mind here in Finland. Hope to come and explore some of Sweden next summer 👍

      "Being right is not important ", this sounds poetical …I will explain this to my German boss..:) But now talking seriously, your video is really good…!!Thanks so much for the valuable tips. In fact, we should behave like this everywhere.. Great video…!

      Great video! So many usefull tips like the NVDB map and other types of maps! And don't forget the true swedish way of handling a conflict… clench your fist, go home and punch a pillow xD.

      Hi im swed i have ride in many years but not now im to old. One thing they didnt tell here is:If you lit a fire use the firepits that is prepaird for it and not on the ground and check if there is restrictions for to lit a fire . Depends on how warm and dry the airia is. And the most important SE SO THE FIRE IS COMPLITLY BURND OUT NOT EVEN THE SLITEST SMOKE SHOULD BEE THERE ,BECAUSE FIRES CAN AND WILL SELF START AGAIN AND WE HAVE A FOREST FIRE. THAT YOU CAN HAVE TO PAY FOR IF THEY GOT YOU. Many people think that because the earth is wet there will not burn but thats wrong, in a moss the fire glow and dry bit for bit in the ground and in a moment it burns up to the surface and start an open fire. so please use water to put out the fire not a foot.
