The Return from Vestland (day 4)

Posted on August 17, 2023August 20, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

The return from Vestland wasn’t going to be all solo. My friend, who came from Bergen, decided to tag along, for a while. There was a reason for that. A reason In the form of a particular gravel he had not ridden before. A detour for my friend from Bergen. The opposite direction kind of…read more>>

Day touring in Vestland (day 3)

Posted on August 6, 2023August 17, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Day touring in Vestland county can be an experience you’ll remember. Especially if the weather is as good as it was this weekend.  It might be an experience to remember if the weather is bad, although not quite as fondly possibly. Though perhaps with a smile? I have such memories, of monsoon or torrential rain…read more>>

Aurland & Voss, west of Norway (day 2)

Posted on July 24, 2023August 5, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

Aurland is a beautiful municipality in Vestland county. Add a little dash of Voss as well, and you have plenty for a day’s worth of riding! My friend would be coming from Bergen in the afternoon. So I had some hours to roam around, explore and see places not seen before. Aurland, the fjord, the…read more>>

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>>

Time for a change, time to let it go (?)

Posted on November 2, 2022November 7, 2022 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

55 000 kilometers over two 7 months seasons, 65 000 kilometers since new. For a 2019 model that is a “fair bit”? Time for a change, why? Several reasons.  None are related to dissatisfaction with the motorcycle. Rather mileage and second hand value. If you ride a lot, like me, I am sure the situation…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>>

Fate and fatalities, early end of a summer season

Posted on August 9, 2020June 5, 2023 by Knut Meyn 8 Comments

Fate is, well for the most part, and for the most of us, unknown. Until it’s the present or, as one sometimes look forward to, history. This introduction may sound a bit cryptic. But if you grant me some minutes it should become clear what type of fate I am hinting at.  It will also…read more>>

The long way home, with detours

Posted on December 4, 2019June 5, 2023 by Knut Meyn Leave a comment

The long way home, that was our plan. Waking up on Sunday the weather was gorgeous. So we intended to make the most out of the day.  Right after breakfast we packed up and left Straand hotel in Vrådal. Before getting on, a few things about the/our hotel. It’s pretty good, but in my opinion,…read more>>
