When summer made a surprise return in late September, I decided to have a go at my ambitious plan of using the bike as my transportation for a visit to Hikletten on Osterøy. I therefore got up early Sunday morning and began the long bike ride towards Botnen just as the sun was starting to rise. Thankfully a relatively cold morning soon turned significantly warmer, and even though my legs were still tired from yesterday's hike, progress was initially good. Bruvik was reached without any difficulties and it was now time for the main challenge of the day, i.e. the long climb up to Båtaleitet . By now my legs had started to complain slightly, I therefore mixed in short stretches of walking next to the bike for a bit of variation. But the first lunch break halfway up the climb was still very welcome and also provided >>>

Short bike ride while at a meeting at Schloss Dagstuhl in Germany, with road quality ranging from nice forest roads to rougher tractor roads, mostly the former though. On the way to Wenzelstein I came across Eulenkreuz . The summit itself was harder to locate and unmarked, but in the end I concluded that the highest point had to be around the small water tank (says "wasserhochbehälter" on the map) 100 meters or so west of where the highest point seems to be according to the map. Limited views for most of the trip, including the summit. Note the track is created from memory as my GPS refused to work properly.

Another short bike trip along Barsnesfjorden, but this time it started raining on the return. Note that the road this hike follows is private, i.e. no cars allowed. There are however a couple of parking spaces down by the small wharf along Barsnesfjorden just before the road turns west and starts climbing slightly towards the crossroads at Barsnes.

Ever since last year's attempt to cycle to Fimreite ended way too abruptly I had wanted to have another go. This time taking it very easy in the sharp turn where I had my unfortunate close encounter with the pavement last July, and thus this time making it safely down to Eide. From there the cycling was straightforward, though always seeming to include more climbing than I remember from previous visits. From Fimreite I continued west and later east along the gravel road, passing by two gates and a sign with no driving allowed. The gravel road was of good quality and far from steep, but the climb was still tough given the constant ascent providing little to no rest. More than once I considered leaving the bike behind and continuing on foot, but decided not to, given that the bike would be greatly beneficial for my >>>

Too warm for hiking. So I went for a cycling trip around Ulriken instead, passing by Nesttun on the way to the city center.

Partial trial run to test the feasibility of using the bike as the means of transportation for a visit of Hikletten . Should be doable, but will be a very long trip (more than 120 km for the cycling alone...). However, this test did not include the 400 meters ascent from Bruvik to the parking lot at Båtaleitet , which will clearly be the hardest part. Note: The strange zero meters above sea level in the middle of the profile is actually the crossing of Osterøybroen, which is not picked up when correcting the GPS elevation values.
