Early June 2023 to the west of Norway (day 1)

Posted on July 17, 2023August 5, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Early June the weather can be quite variable in Norway. If you decide to ride about in June, bring good rain gear & warm clothes! Of later years June has been a dry month. In fact very dry. At least in the south-eastern, some western and central parts. And July has evolved into somewhat of…read more>>

Fyresdal to Oslo, a 2022 mini adventure (2)

Posted on June 28, 2023July 13, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Fyresdal to Oslo isn’t a very long ride. Probably something like 230-240 kilometers. But then you have to take the main roads. Consequently my plan was to take an alternative route which involved all sorts of smaller roads. And gravel, dirt based of course. Then later onto E134, from Notodden via Kongsberg, to Drammen. After…read more>>

Southwest weekend, a 2022 mini adventure (1)

Posted on June 1, 2023June 5, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

South southwest of Norway was my target during first half of June 2022. Inspired by a friend who went the same direction a week before.   It would be only a two day adventure. Had chosen a place I knew from before, at a great location. Will come back to that later. The weather forecast was…read more>>

Lago Maggiore and Lago Lugano had been on my list of places to see for a while. Finally I was heading there.  Turin & northeast Started off riding in the same direction as the day before. First on the E70, then onto SP24 in direction of Turin. I very much wanted to avoid big city…read more>>

Silence, but there’s life alright

Posted on July 25, 2022December 2, 2022 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Silence it’s good, every so often. Guess I went empty, sort of. That, and summer season never is a high for me writing-wise.  Think I went a bit sour in my pursuit to finish off the story about last year’s escapades. So silence was needed. And that coincided with the beginning of the motorcycle season….read more>>

Col de l’Iseran, a day, there and back

Posted on May 22, 2022February 12, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Col de l’Iseran is the highest paved Alpine pass. It’s close to the French – Italian border, a must see or do for many motorcyclists. Settled in Italy the plan was to do a one day excursion. From Italy and over into France. Ride Col de l’Iseran, maybe a little bit beyond, and return. I’d…read more>>

Assietta or Strada dell’Assietta, a definite high

Posted on March 6, 2022August 9, 2023 by Knut Meyn 1 Comment

The Alpine military road known as Strada dell’Assietta is a road that, for many motorcycle riders sits high up on the list of must do’s. So also for me. But it wasn’t planned. Like so many other things, in life and on tour, it just happened. Actually, I wasn’t sure I’d do it, alone, on…read more>>

Five passes on a day, in France

Posted on March 3, 2022February 12, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

August 28th became the day of the five passes.  A long day, a pretty long ride. But what does that matter when you’re in the French Alps? As I got started in the morning, nothing was planned. Well, I had a couple of passes on my list. But nothing definite. And absolutely no idea about…read more>>

South into France, over to Italy

Posted on January 30, 2022February 12, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

The next morning heading south in France was the plan. Said farewell to the great guys I met at Hotel Le Roitelet and continued first west. Then south. Did think about going back into Switzerland. But I’d never been in the region, and mountains south of Lac Leman before. So first I took D22 slightly…read more>>

Switzerland and France, 2021 Euro Adventure, day 5

Posted on January 1, 2022February 12, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Most people who travel by road in Europe, wind up in Switzerland. Or at least, travel through, on their way south, north, east or west.  Switzerland has a lot to offer. Centrally placed in Europe, stunning nature, awesome roads, multiple mountain passes and quaint small cities or villages. It is an expensive country to travel…read more>>
