Default Norway drive (pictures)

Hi, just sheering some pictures from a trip last weekend to Norway. The roads are inspiring to drive, but no chance to give full throttle anywhere in this country……I clocked 1312 miles on this trip, so I really got to drive the car.

...ah, what are the speeding fines, there? (Because some of those curves look sooo inviting! Except for those woolen speed-bumps)

Gorgeous looking road. Reminds me of an episode of Top Gear. I wonder if the segment I'm thinking of was shot on the same road...?

Well…have to see about the fines. I passed a lot off speed cameras. Looked as they were from early eighties, so I don’t know if they where armed.

Gus, That particular road is closed in the winter (covered with +/- 30ft of snow) , in summer time it has some minor bumps but almost no potholes.

Wow!

That certainly makes the winters worth enduring!

Absolutely spectacular!
