Day #3 Olderfjord / Alta
Maps, Charts and Key figures
Back to Alta.
The day started with snowy conditions, after an hour of riding, one stop to warm my feet... a car passed me and stopped after few meters... and guess what, the driver was the Swiss guy I met the day before during the breakfast!
The time to say « how are you ? » and to wish us good luck, for him, to coming back home (Because of an aerian strike), and for me, to continue my bike adventure. And here we go again ;)
A few moment later, I arrived at Skaidi, a small Norwegian city with a gas station and maybe nothing more... If I have learned something from my last bike touring experience, is that if you find a place where you can eat, drink and do some shopping, do it. You never know when/where the next one is.
What I have done. I took a coffee, a hotdog and some food. It was the right thing to do, because after that I found nothing between the 25th km and Alta (80 km later). I rode all the remainkng route in one shot, except one more stop to eat something, and another one after a big downhill because of frozen hands and feets. Even if it was a sunny day after Skaidi... Average temperature of the day 2°C... Distance 114km...
I finally reached my campsite, and set up my tent!
