    Malmo's writeup is done and more photos can be seen. Very, very big ride today 550kms so breakfast and an early start is required.

    thats all forgotten now (at least by me ;)). i have new boots which are much better.
    Anyway around 1300kms into my journey. I'm 70kms short of Oslo staying friends and being attacked by Basil Brush and his friend the giant Irish Wolf hound. Basil is a right little biter, but thank god hes still small. Blog up to date.

    Malmo is beautiful. I was working at Copenhagen airport a few years ago and we had to take some time off work (Danish law... if we had worked more days without time off they were worried the local engineers would have gone on strike!) so we took the train over the bridge. That is a feat of engineering in itself!

    Yes I believe they built an island in the middle to support the structure of the bridge.

    Norway is absolutely stunning.
    Guys make the effort and visit. You won't regret it.
    Today was a long one but now sat by a lake and on my second beer.
    2000 Kms covered and still heading north. It's strange riding this distance and still riding further away from home.
    Rode through a heavy shower, stopped to cover things up and put the action camera away and then the sun came out. Strange weather here. It can be sunny and hot then cloudy and rainy. But the majority of the time it's been lovely

    Enjoying your blog, Nikki. Lots of familiar images! I only went as far north as trondheim, but I'm sure it'll be gorgeous further north. You'll enjoy the "Trollstigsveien"!

    Did the Trollstigen road today and the Geiranger Fjord. Pretty amazing. Waspy running well. But my bottom keeps getting pummeled. I should've brought my Hawk air cushion thingy. I'm now in Molde.
    Day 7 is ready for your perusal.

    I've been on 2 ferries today. It saves loads of time and kilometers.
