Spent a week in Norway back in July, a first time for me and wow what a country to ride a bike.
The views were insane (these are a few of the 1 billion photos I took) and the gravel roads have to be the best gravel I've ever ridden.
Tarmac between the gravel was super smooth, you're allowed to wild camp and everyone I met was friendly. Plus you hardly needed lights, mainly just in tunnels.
Weather was 50/50, unseasonably cold and wet (Inc snow) at the start of the week but sunny and warm towards the end. So it was a take all the kit type trip 😂
I originally went to race the Bright Midnight but it didn't go to plan…. so I switched it up and got to enjoy bikepacking taking it all in.
I made a video of my trip if anyone is interested in seeing more of Norway and what it offers:

Glad you managed to get a bit of good weather, it’s been so cold and rainy all summer (unlike the rest of Europe!).
