Day 4 Cycling the entire length of Norway #bikepacking

Day 4/21 cycling the entire length of Norway 🇳🇴🚴‍♂️

Nordkapp → Lindesnes.

Today’s mission: cycle 108 km through Northern Norway towards Skibotn, with the Lyngen Alps casually sitting in the background.

There was just one small issue.

My legs had apparently stayed in Storslett.

2 km in: heavy legs.
30 km in: rain.
50 km in: some of the best views of the trip.
70 km in: still raining.
100 km in: Norway couldn’t decide between summer and autumn.

Pretty standard day of road cycling in Norway.

This stretch through Troms and the Lyngen Alps might be one of the most beautiful cycling routes I’ve ridden so far. Fjords, huge mountains, waterfalls and roads squeezed between the sea and cliffs.

Although seeing evidence of rockslides every few kilometres does add a certain level of motivation to keep moving. 😅

But the best number from Day 4 wasn’t on Strava.

❤️ We’ve now raised 10,000 NOK for Mental Helse Ungdom.

I’m cycling from Nordkapp to Lindesnes to raise money for youth mental health in Norway, and seeing people get behind this challenge already means a lot.

Fundraiser link is in the comments if you want to support the ride ❤️

And a massive thank you to Merida Nordic for sponsoring this adventure and helping make 21 days of long-distance cycling across Norway possible. The Merida Scultura 9000 continues its journey south.
