yeah this makes me happy It does make me happy It’s beautiful 26 We love sun So Norway has had 2 weeks of really dry settled weather It makes us [Music] happy Oh I hate my [Music] life I have to show you this place at this time as well This is where the city meets the forest [Music] [Music] Are you ready are you ready you have to get up really early in the middle of May to catch the sunrise as the days are getting very very light now [Music] So this is a great metaphor for life You see this this is where you’ve come from Take a good look This is all the exams you’ve passed the career that you’ve built the family that you have But don’t stand here too long because where you’re going is this way And that’s a great unknown There’s an even better view if you keep [Music] going I know I know it’s been way too long I have been super super busy recyclen.com I have got so much to inform you about the company and what is going on but that is for another video Right now today the sun is shining I have got to get out there and explore this incredible country But I need a new bike So I’m going to take you down to the center of Oslo We’re going to pick up a new bike and then we’re going to hit the road [Music] Jurgen Hello sir How are you doing i’m doing good How are you i’m very good thank you Very good indeed Welcome to the new showroom So this is it This is the new home of Farah Yes The home of the brand Did you Did you put this on for me i do make waffles for guests Yes Oh my goodness This is a treat So this is tipis no ride fuel Yeah This is how we carve up in Norway That’s for sure When did you buy the bike uh 1 year ago approximately And how’s it been it’s just been beautiful I just love it And we are a group of guys with uh yeah I think we have bought four bikes in total and all of us are very happy with it So it’s uh it’s a very good brand as we find it at least You bought this this one here Yeah Oh Which color did you get that one Uh this is a beautiful color isn’t it it’s extremely beautiful Yeah Timeless I feel I’ve been a lot of places I’ve been in Nura Yeah I live in Nital which is close to Numa been there doing both quite a lot of gravel but also uh road and then this weekend we actually went to the west coast also a little bit in between a bit of gravel and a bit of road and I think it works beautifully for both purposes I bought the far off gravel one bike frame yeah was on sale so but it’s a great bike on it like a couple of times now up toka doing the gravel gravel roads around there it’s awesome that’s cool very light and nimble the frame So I do love it We’re going up to North Norway where my girlfriend’s family is So I’m going to do some bikeing there Oh we’re in North Norway Uh Lutton and above Yeah Oh man So it’s going to be good He’s in for a treat He’s in for a treat New bike day I’m I’m excited for the season I’ve been told it’s it’s beautiful Oh my goodness Look at this The farroen 53 Stram colorways Oh my Sip 303 carbon wheels Rival access 2 by group set Um carbon bar stem Nice little bottle cage Fortunately or unfortunately however you want to look at it I uh met a Norwegian girl in Australia maybe 7 years ago now and came over uh following love I’m from Melbourne in Australia and it’s like I lived right in the center of the city and it’s a massive urban sprawl like to get sort of outside of the city you’re kind of going 30 40 km in either direction um to escape the houses and stuff So yeah where I live now it’s about 10 km from the city center and then I literally ride 500 m from my door and I’m in Nordmarker uh in the forest and you can ride for like hundreds of kilometers on gravel roads without seeing a car or anything So it’s Yeah it’s amazing All right Jurgen take me to the office with your waffle This yours Lot of Bikes Here’s Jeff Long time no see Jeff Long time I think some of the viewers may remember you Yeah Yeah good to see you Working hard I see Yeah Yeah Pretending to work hard So uh how is life with Farah uh yeah we’re busy enough that’s for sure Lots lots to do A roller coaster of a journey Yeah Yeah Hey why does it smell like waffles there’s a few more downstairs An early start today Yeah Good For anybody who’s set up a business you know already how hard it is to set up a business Like it’s just im there’s just so much you have to understand and there’s so much bureaucracy and laws and all the rest of it Jeff set up a business here in in Norway He’s not Norwegian right he’s started 2016 didn’t you Spara And it’s now what 2025 nine nine years he’s been operating You saw the showroom downstairs How incredible is But not only that he went to Taiwan set up an office and warehouse in Taiwan cuz obviously all frames are made in Taiwan if you’re not aware of that So he has custom frames made now in Taiwan You have a warehouse down there You have staff down there How the hell do you do that Jeff seriously I mean that’s like pretty impressive Yeah I mean my my biggest advice for uh people considering to start a business is like just don’t do it At least if it’s a if it’s a bike business man it’s crazy So there’s a lot of uh sort of ignorance and naivity and stupidity involved to to get started for sure You’re so unbelievably bold You can put the camera away now It’s just not it’s not worth filming Key to any kind of like an ultra distance riding is just keep going keep like a steady pace try to minimize your stops We knew it was going to be difficult It’s only got like 15,000 views which is shocking cuz it was an amazing we did from the Swedish border to Olison We did it twice cuz the first time it was horrendous weather and we came back watch that video But we need to do something like that again Reminded us of that But uh yeah know I’m always jealous of your adventures man So uh you know I I feel like I’m getting left behind here on some stuff So So you got to let me know and let’s let’s uh let’s get going Let’s go do something All right Congratulations Jeff I’m now officially a Norwegian Canadian So you’re polite good-looking and uh leftwing Well I don’t Yeah Two out of three [Music] Two bikes for the season 45 mil gravel 35 mil tires all-road rough stuff hard packed paved That’s all you need [Music] This road is about 300 years old I don’t think anybody’s been down here for about 200 years So this is Telmark Quintessential Talmark Pine forests Excellent gravel roads Mountains in the distance More pine forest everywhere [Music]

  1. Looking forward to any and all upcoming videos. Each one gets me even more stoked to make it to Norway to cycle someday from here in Montana USA. Cheers Matthew 👍

  2. Hei, fet video og takk for en god Fara presentasjon. Feriepengene brenner så er akkurat klar for å kjøpe ny sykkel all-road eller gravel. Send gjerne link. Ser frem til flere vlogs

  3. Looks like Jeff missed the road code as his bikes lacks rear reflector, front reflector and pedal reflectors as required by law.

  4. Awesome, great video Matthew, really good to have you back. Love the new bike, congratulations, looking forward to the adventures to come this year.

  5. I just moved to Norway from Sydney a few days ago, just in time for the summer ahead! Great to see Jack sticking around in Norway and working at Fara, I'll pop by to say g'day. Thanks for the videos and enjoy the new bike 🤙
