That's my Bergen to North Cape (Nordkapp) cycle tour completed. 1,691 miles over 32 days. No rest days. Wild camped every night. Shorts all the way. 😁 What a ride. The Norwegian coastline is spectacular. Snow showers on the last day. #norway #norge #cycling #camping #nordkapp

@RDPHistory Alan West came down the ladders from the bridge of the Yarmouth after he was rescued. I was stood outside the Ops room. He cadged a ciggy off me. "It's my first one in three years", he said. A nice chap. 👍

The second day on the bike in Norway was a long one with lots of climbing. #norway #cycling #veloroute1

After landing in Norway it was time to cycle up the Norwegian coast to North Cape. The first day was spent heading through a busy Bergen city centre complete with cruise ships. #bergen #norway #cycling

An enjoyable ride up the Cinder Track to Whitby yesterday with MikeE-Bikey. Loving life along the Yorkshire coast. #yorkshire #cycling #freshairandexercise #whitby #scarborough

The last wild camp of the tour was not a million miles away from the ferry terminal at Newhaven. After that it was a train back home via Buckingham Palace . After 1,900 miles of cycling, the tour from the Sahara to the UK was complete.

[Dave Roe @DaveFY7]

The last stretch into Dieppe was a bit of a rush to catch the late afternoon ferry.

[Dave Roe @DaveFY7]

The Paris to London veloroute would take me to Dieppe for the ferry across the Newhaven

[Dave Roe @DaveFY7]

More progress through northern France

[Dave Roe @DaveFY7]

The next section was to follow the Champagne et Bourgogne canal

[Dave Roe @DaveFY7]

The weather became colder and wet the further north I cycled. Cold and wet feet became the norm as I returned to winter conditions

[Dave Roe @DaveFY7]

Wild camping was wonderful along the Saône cycle path #saône

The splendour of the Rhône valley

[Dave Roe @DaveFY7]

There were some beautiful sights heading up the Rhone valley.

[Dave Roe @DaveFY7]
