Default Greetings from Norway

Hello fellow HD-riders!

Just wanted to pop in and say hi. I just bought my first bike ever, a Fatboy 2002. Looking forward to many miles on this baby here in Norway. Spring is here and biking season has just started!

Here it is:

Hehe yeah, thanks! All the way up north to the land of the vikings!

I'll leave you with some footage from one of the famous tourist attractions here in Norway, Trollstigen (Troll's Ladder). Can't wait to go there on my HD.

It is a popular tourist attraction due to its steep incline of 9% and eleven hairpin bends up a steep mountain side. The road up is narrow with many sharp bends, and although it has been widened in recent years, vehicles over 12.4 metres long are prohibited from driving the road. At the top there is large parking place which allows visitors to leave their cars/bikes and walk for about ten minutes to a viewing balcony which overlooks the road with its bends and the Stigfossen waterfall. Stigfossen is a beautiful waterfall which falls 320 metres down the mountain side.
Trollstigen is closed during the fall and winter months. A normal opening season stretches from mid-May to October, but may sometimes be shorter or longer due to changes in the weather conditions.

A little video of bikes driving up the "ladder".
