I follow these guys on FB.  They are returning now.  Nordkapp was closed for snow storm, they did not make it all the way up there.

Now that is some cold weather riding! Makes me feel like a wussy complaining about low 40° f temps.

Link?  Interesting fact:



"The road to Nordkapp is open to traffic throughout the year, but in winter it is operated by convoy driving. All vehicles have to join a convoy to reach Nordkapp. Meeting point for the convoy is by the Skarsvåg junction, 13 km from Nordkapp".
