NORWAY ON OUR MINDS

With days growing longer, and temperatures going up, we are thinking about new places to take our bikes. In our archive we found this article about Norway, and the Arctic Race. The nothernmost road race in the world. And it seems like the asphalt and gravel roads there are a perfect place to take your PARALANE.
