Oslo to Almost Lindesnes

Gautefall, Norway, in autumn

A little less than two months ago, I journeyed through most of the Norway on my bike, from the northernmost point of mainland Norway, the North Cape, to Oslo. This trip of 2.347 km, or through 11.25 geodetic latitudes, was divided into 11 stages. It was always the intention to finish this trip, by riding to the southernmost point in Norway, Lindesnes. It's something charming about finishing things. Putting the memories in a photo album. I wanted to do this.

Nordkapp - Oslo, 11-stage cycling adventure

The North Cape, Europe's northernmost point

These are the memoirs of my North Cape to Oslo bicycle holiday adventure. On one day in June, I discovered I had two weeks in front of me where my employer didn't need me. With no plans, and being annoyed at everything that didn't go my way. I was especially out for revenge after the latest bicycle race, where my team again speeded off into victory, leaving me on the Dovre mountain all alone.

My first multi-day cycling trip was from Bergen, on the west coast, to Oslo, on the east side of Norway.
