What a great report. It just goes to show that even when things awry you can still have a great experience and unexpected things can be the most memorable, eg seeing the Northern Lights. Despite your problems you did meet your main objective and were lucky to be at Nordkapp on a good day.
Hats off to both of you

Sorry to hear my old bike had FD issues, I guess it can happen to the best of bikes !!
It looks a lot less shiny than when I gave it over to you.... it now looks like a proper GS !
Fantastic ride report, you've got me thinking now !

Hi Dan, hope you are well. These things happen....apart from the FD the bike has been brilliant - done nearly 20K miles since I purchased it off you. It was certainly dirty by the time we got back - all clean again now.
A useful site for anyone planning a trip to Norway is Vegvesen.no - it has up to date information regarding road maintenance including diversions and closures, weather conditions, ferry crossings with timetables and webcams showing current conditions. Only available in Norwegian but Google Translate is your friend....
