Minutes of a Motorcycle Addict
Two wheels good trip. Four wheels bad trip.
Toolbox mainpage
Welcome to the blogsphere of a Motorcycle Addict!
I was once the President of the Norwegian Motorcyclist's Union and even President of the Federation of European Motorcyclist's Associations. Not any longer, but still my interests in riders' rights are alive. Riders' rights issues are covered in The Tool Box Blog.
In Down the Road I depict the day-to-day life of a Motorcycle Addict. Some small ride reports, cool bikes worth taking pictures of and so on.
I hope you enjoy the reading, and please feel free to comment.

The other day I got this pic from Sakke. He's in Mongolia.
Whereas I am about to take my summer's vacation trip to Italy, I got this e-mail from Sakke Häyrinen from Finland. He had attached this pic, showing his KTM 690 Adventure pretty loaded with gear. He'd also attached a link to his...

The organizers of the MC Rally Norway must have been everywhere else but at the actual rally. It was nothing short of an organizational disaster. Fortunately I was surrounded by good friends.
Averøy MCC, some from Asker MCC and Jon at my place the evening before departure to MC Rally Norway at Fr...

Those Isle of Man TT pilots are nuts... But you can't help but admire people with such skills.

Igjen vaier forslaget om å påby gul vest på MC-førere. Denne gang kommer forslaget fra en MC-fører som synser om synlighet.

Hardanger is the Norway cliche: The scenery and the motorcycle roads are totally magnificent!
On the road between Utne and Jondal. More pics below.
My mate Tor and I was supposed to go to Nordkapp that week, but things came in our way so we postponed the whole trip. As a small s...

Not much if you ask me. The weekend of 28 - 30 May 2010 gathered a bunch of riders of Italian bikes - and a few non-Italian too actually - at a camp site some 1...

The site is by the Lake Mjøsa in beautiful surroundings.
As my wife and son had their schedules full this weekend, Oda and I...
