We thought about getting someone to drive a van with all our kit but
decided it kind of missed the point.

 

For once I think a backup crew was a good idea

 

I suppose I could try to find someone willing to drive a van then all
I'd need to do is chuck a couple of hundred quids worth of studs into
some tyres for the KTM and ride around on something weighing next to
**** all for a couple of hundred miles each day and load it into the van
with a nice little heater to keep it warm at night.

Or alternatively I could decide I'd sooner not bother.

 

it. When I finally get a job, I'll get a Tenere and ride up to the
Norkapp, if only to snap a picture of the city of Dombås

 

I did it on the XJ900, 2 up

In summer, of course.

 

Snow is over rated.

 

Not when it's on a mountain, it isn't. No way. Ice, OTOH....

 

Summer is overrated...

 

So you don't fancy doing the Elefant next year?

 

Depends where you are, my last summer went on for a long time

 

Do I look stupid ?

It can't be that hard just to say yes to him.

 

From memory yes. Both look and act.

Which you must be to turn down the opportunity of the Elefant. Great
weather, good camping, beer and fires and, if you are really lucky,
you get to sledge into someone's tent or beer pile.

What's not to like?
