On the 8th day I started seeing the first signs counting down the km to the North Cape. It was really warm for this region, in fact so warm that the reindeer had to take shelter inside of the tunnels from the warmth.

  1. Thank you, dear, Mike, for taking us with you, on your amazing bike touring adventure to the Nordcap! Wishing you all the very best and stay safe and immensely richly blessed!

  2. Excellent! A great reminder of my Nordkapp trek in 1985. I recall that the ride from Alta to Olderfjord was very open but we were lucky in that there was no headwind. At one point, there was a Sami camp by the side of the road, selling rindeer artifacts to tourists.

  3. Hi Mike! Great to see this video! I cycled from Rotterdam to the Northcape the last sic weeks! I recognise a lot of your footage. I also have had the privilege of cycling with people I've met on the way. I call them my cycling family❤.
    You have been a great inspiration for the last year in my preparation for this epic journey! Takk!

  4. HI Mike. As always a great video. You do such a great job with your narrative and video work. These videos to the North Cape makes me want to throw my gear on the plane and do this trip. Take care.

  5. Just watched Ryan van Duzers latest video from Sweden, and guess who jumps off the bus at the end?😊 Looking forward to seeing you two in collaboration!

  6. Thank you, Mike, for your wonderful videos. You're in the best tradition of Darren Alff! All the best for you and greetings from Germany.

  7. Mike, what is the maximum road speed limit that you feel safe going on with your touring bike?
    And, how do you know which roads you are allowed to go and which aren't allowed if there are no signs?!

  8. Such a beautiful country with breathtaking scenery. Thanks for taking us along and for all the work and time you put into making these excellent touring videos. Much appreciated!
