Jotunheimen and northwards, summer ride 2

Posted on December 8, 2019December 14, 2019 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Jotunheimen in Norway is a national park and  mountainous area of roughly 3,500 km².  July 26th I left Oslo for another Norwegian long weekend  ride. Jotunheimen is a fantastic area for trekking, fishing, and camping . You can also rent cabins,  summer or winter. High season can be pretty expensive. According to Norwegian law, aka…read more>>

2017 Summer Adventure part 15, returning north

Posted on November 25, 2017November 5, 2018 by Knut Meyn 2 Comments

The second last day was all about returning north. Time was up. Wanted to be back home and have a couple of days rest before returning to work. North through Germany Initially I’d decided to avoid the Autobahn as much as possible on this adventure. But returning north was about saving some time for the…read more>>

Rewind, pictures and rides from 2015

Posted on November 2, 2017November 4, 2017 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

The season is ending here up north, or ebbing out. Thought to rewind a little bit, post some pics from rides in 2015. Late May that year, after over 32 years of absence, I was “back in the saddle”. Thanks to a friend and fellow rider I “saw the light”, again. The expression might not…read more>>

2017 Summer Adventure part 11, The Dolomites

Posted on October 29, 2017January 26, 2020 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

As it turned out, Hotel Gianzianella in Sottoguda was a good spot for staying a couple of nights. For one thing, the prices outside Cortina d’Ampezzo are better, the Dolomites are close by. Then there are the roads! The Dolomites – when you’re at the doorstep in the literal sense of the word. Right across…read more>>

2017 Summer Adventure part 8, into Austria

Posted on October 9, 2017February 4, 2019 by Knut Meyn 2 Comments

Will start this post more less like the previous; left the hotel in the morning and set course for Austria. A beautiful morning indeed. However, it started earlier than the previous. Much thanks to a group of women talking loudly front of the hotel, VERY early. Must have been around sunrise. They sat not too…read more>>

Autumn ride & homeland nature (Part 2)

Posted on September 22, 2017October 31, 2017 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Coming down into the valley Nore & Uvdal we landed in the village Rødberg,  took a little break and discussed where our Autumn ride would go next.   Gravel-On-Wards Northwards We agreed on a route, and had at first a navigational miss. Partially my fault or rather, had a minor GPS mishap due to lack…read more>>

2017 Summer Adventure – Part 5, Wroclaw – Poland

Posted on September 10, 2017January 26, 2020 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Had decided to avoid big cities during the summer’s adventure as much as possible. Primarily because of traffic (congestion) and heat. Better to hop on a plane, stay central and explore by foot or public transport. Wroclaw was one of few exceptions. Despite efforts, the GPS sometimes led me trough cities rather than around. Reason…read more>>

Been a while since the last post, life rushes by rapidly…

Posted on July 8, 2017November 29, 2017 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

April 29th was my last update, and where we are, early in July! Since then, a bit of mc & daytrip adventures, a bit of life. So, summer, vacation, although with regards to the first, not so much. That is, at least not weather-wise, in this country. I’ve not planned anything in particular or rather,…read more>>

My (recent) motorcycle ownership history, and 2 years of experience

Posted on April 9, 2017July 29, 2018 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

The decision to change motorcycle had been made early 2017. Well in fact, the thought, or plan, established itself as the PMS (Parked Motorcycle Syndrome) settled in (much too soon) during the early dark days of winter. This is the period of the year where we, here up north, well those of us with a passion for…read more>>

2016 is history, what awaits us in the new year?

Posted on December 31, 2016October 3, 2017 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

A year is history, you find yourself at the doorstep of a new year once again and (potentially) wonder, so what’s up for the new year? Pointless pondering or good exercise? If however, you ask yourself how many of past year’s bigger events you would have guessed as we left 2015, I am pretty sure the answer…read more>>
