Easy morning ride to the ferry.
Across the fjord is a nice stave church.
A quick steep climb brings me up to the church at the top of the
village. Great carving on the church
from 900 years ago. It is a relatively
easy ride to the end of Norway's longest fjord.
Only three unlighted tunnel. Road
into the first one with out a light as I was zipping down
 |
| Dive right into the fjord |
 |
| Going camo |
 |
| Night out on town |
 |
| Parked on a mountain and the view is from the satellite dish |
hill. With pitch darkness ahead I came to a quick
stop. As my eyes got use to the darkness
I could barley make out where the road was.
So I road on hoping for no holes or trolls. For other tunnels decided that a kilometer
and half would be better done with light.
From the head of the fjord it is a pleasant ride for few miles.
The the switchback climb begins.
The climb is unrelenting. I hoped
to camp below tree line but the area is littered with second homes. I climb on and on. It is late and getting cooler when the
temperature drops below 42F/5C I put the light fleece shirt over the tee
shirt. At 11pm I stop finally to camp
and stop climbing. After some dinner I
can go to sleep as the temp hits freezing and a light rain picks up.
Love and kisses
Steve
