    Welcome to the forum. We have a couple norwegians on here I think. You guys must have a love for VFRs! :biggrin:

    BTW, what is your riding season like? How long does it last and all? Do you have a lot of nice curvy roads for riding?

    yepp. We love beatifull bikes over here :biggrin: I live on the west coast of Norway, and I guess I can ride 10 months of the year. It's not as mutch snow here, as it is on the east coast and up in the mountains. So the season is long, if one dont mind the rain:rolleyes: But I guess the usual season is from the beginning of may until late november. It's no fun riding when you'r freecing your b***s off:tongue: We have a lot of curvy road, so the riding is nice

    Wow, 10 months out of the year? That is great! I was thinking you were going to say 4 months or something, however, I have no idea of the climate in Norway, other than it is far up in the northern hemisphere. I was thinking loads of snow most of the year. Sounds like you already might have found a riding buddy (GTI) near you. Cool deal!

    Yeah, I guess one could ride so long, but the roads may get icy even though there is no snow. I wouldn't risk any injuries to my precious, so I guess I'll take the car when the riding gets uncomfortably and there is a possibilty for icy roads. Imagine if anything should happen to my bike:eek:
