Trine Christiansen started the discussion Sognefjellsvegen in the forum Does anyone know? 9 months ago
Hello,
I am considering cykling Sognefjellsvegen in July. Does anyone know what kind of traffic conditions to expect? And is it the right direction to go from Otta/Lom towards Bergen? I am worried that it will be packed with cars and dangerous. Any experience from this road is super welcome😊

I would say that it’s near impossible to be a bad photographer when your subject matter is Norway’s epic scenery.
The Nikon was brand new to me on last year’s trip and I took over a 1000 great shots, nary a bad one. But it had a delete key that proved to be useful.
Your OP of that article, which I’d seen before, was extremely helpful once again.

Thanks for this recommendation. Bags like this would for sure be the best way to carry a camera. But I really don’t want to cycle with a hip bag every day for weeks 😬
It’s such a first world problem …

Thank you both for sharing your experiences; much appreciated 👍
So, in the end it’s a question of priorities 😬
I don’t really consider a hip bag or rucksack an option for me.
My camera (a Canon EOS R50) is not as bulky and heavy as a Nikon P950 but I’m still unsure if it’s worth the “suffering” because I’m not that much of a photographer…

Mountainsmith Aurora II Camera Bag available on EBay (like mine, it’s 20+years old) and a harness I use (along with neck strap) to keep the camera handy in front of me and another bag I haven’t figured out how to mount on anything yet:
