| 26th July 2009 James | How are the roads in Norway? - From: The train from Narvik to Stockholm and then home Hi, Congrats on completing the trip, it makes an excellent read. I'm thinking of doing a tour of Europe including Norway in a year or so, and I'm just at the stage of thinking about the route. However I'd heard Norway wasn't the best country for cycle touring because of all the road tunnels. Is it possible to bypass these? I'm thinking of following the coast from Gothenburg to Trondheim, or from Oslo to Trondheim, then to Stockholm before getting the ferry to Helsinki.. Thanks, James. |

| 4th June 2009 NickTheTrick | - From: Galivanting in the Galapagos Haha, thanks! In fact the crab got itself stuck in a crack in a rock (usually you can't get within 5m of the buggers). Think the camera was about 5mm from its face - the poor thing was terrified i guess! |

| 25th August 2008 aleksmilton | Great blog - From: The train from Narvik to Stockholm and then home Hi there,I followed your trip after coming across it by chance..a great website idea,seems it was easy to upload the photos where ever you are too ,which makes all the difference.Thanks for making the effort,pretty inspiring.Definately like to visit Scandinavia now...don't know if I could handle all that solo cycling though as I guess it can get pretty lonesome out there on the road! Let us know when your next trip is,as I'm sure a few months back here will inspire another trip abroad pretty soon. Anyways, thanks again..given me lots of ideas to get out abroad more..cheers,Aleks |
| 7th August 2008 Nick B | - From: The train from Narvik to Stockholm and then home Thanks for a great and inspiring travel blog. I only bumped into the blog, as I'd also bought myself a Ridgeback Panorama. But definitely the stories and photos are such encouragement for me to get some miles in, and then get out there for my own adventures. Thanks. |
