Hi! I’ll be leaving shortly on my bikepacking trip through Norway, with the goal of making it to Nordkapp. My original plan was to leave from Oslo next week and head to Trondheim via Lillehammer but now I’m having second thoughts about missing out on the stretch along the coast between Bergen and Trondheim and am considering starting in Bergen instead. Any thoughts on the two variants? Particularly in terms of which one is more suitable for May?

Also, I would like to head back home from Nordkapp by bus and train. Does anyone have any experience with taking buses (with a bike) from Honningsvåg via Alta and Narvik to Bodø?

And if anyone else is cycling the EV1 soon and wants to connect, hit me up!
