Second Start
I finally left Tromsø at 5pm under some rain showers. The last survivors were here to support me....I decided to cycle around 4hours to reach Nordkjosbotn 80km away from the city. The day after, started the real trip with he first 150km cycling day to go from one fjord to one another, passing through valleys and mountains, over rivers. A hard day because of the road and also the weather.....I was still raining...I stopped and prepared my dinner at 10pm, exhausted but just in front of the fjord which will lead me to the Lofoten the days after.
The raod along the coast was very nice, but unfortunately the wind was blowing against me. I was under a terrible rain shower during the last 30km, and I fninally stopped in Sigerfjord, just next to Sortland, in the heart of the Vesterålen.
The next morning the sun was finally shining and for the first time I saw the top of the mountains. The wind was blowing in my back and I flyed to Svolvær. These roads were definetly the best :Mountains and blue-green fjords. The perfect combination!!!!
We met each others in the downtown in Svolvær. We spend a long time just to tell each other our first impression and to enjoy the perfect sun. We cycled a little bit longer to reach Leknes under a wonderful sunset!
