Day 37 | Sekkemo - Transfarelv | 122 KM | 1128 HM

 

Light fog above the fjord. Breakfast in the lounge. Outside it was too fresh for us. Chat with Frank. He wanted to see how we set off.

 

After a short flat phase, a 250 m climb into the fog.

 

A Sami settlement? No, a souvenir stall.

 

Then bad sections again and again. Most drivers show consideration and overtake slowly. Two unfortunately do not.

 

Cyclists. Today 3 from Ahlen in Westphalia overtook. Later two more. Unfriendly or unapproachable. The we-greet-not-back ones. Later, when we adjusted something on Biggi's gearstick, the same ones again showed zero reaction. Customs change.

 

A few more sections of the fjord. Up and down to Alta.

 

In three languages - Norwegian, Sami, Finnish.

 

Today we had two very good tunnels. You can't complain about that. The road surface was better than most of our roads.

 

A fully developed cycle path to Alta, which is also lit throughout.

 

Then there was Tim, who wants to cycle from cape to cape. So now he's heading south. He took the opportunity to test ride the red one.

 

On Sunday we should have reached our next destination. Then we'll finally head south and it should get warmer every day. The wind is already very fresh here. I am so happy that I am riding a velomobile.
