Well, I can like some facts and I know I have som pals out there who always think; - "I'll fancy doing that trip, but how far is it and whats the elevation on that trip (ups and downs..?" Then this blogg is not boring, but fantasticko ela dela informationas: From Nordkapp (the very north of Norway, 71) doing the coast roads down to Lindesnes (the very south , 57 degrees) then to Mysen (11 degrees east) and with the time to stop for a beer or kiss a horse. 
Facts if you try a small part, one day, ten days, or the whole 53 day, the is here (GPS tracking) and the rest is:
Distance: 3375 Kilometer Hours on the cycle for me; 239 Hours (with pit stops, filmin, eating, pi.. and sh..., but tracking... ) Calories uesd ON the bike; 156.828 (acording to my fancy Nokia/www.sports-tracker.com

Cycling 53 days with monkeys and gorillasSaturday, 13 August 2011 06:34
Starting the nice and happy work of lists, facts and collections after the 3375 kilometer and 53 days of cycling in Norway. Start: Nordkapp. Finsih: Mysen (coast roads to Lindesnes and then up Telemark and down Buskerud to Halden and then Mysen)
First happy work is to share the solar cell and battery monkeys from my new pals in www.uhrweder.com who asked me to test the power stuff from www.powertraveler.com . I'll make the report that will tell you that 97% is super and the 3% minus to improve. I belive that they have the best power gear on the marked now (?), and I dreamed about gear like this on the 333 days cycling from Norway to South Africa (2009/10). Had them for 6 mounths now (2011) in all weather. The big test was 53 days of snow, rain and movements on the cycling of Norway - North - South. The monkeys was great and I'v made a collection of photos to salute them in Norwegian nature here (it's my Flickr, and the whole purpose of the days blogg is to make you klick there.. ;-) Hope to have the solar cell report out during August and I'll share that too. The 97% and the 3%. 
Enjoy your activity and try some apes that give you power from the sun!

* Uhrweder and Powertraveler is no moneysponsor. Got the gear. Tested the gear. Happy with the gear. * If you ask me; The inovation of these products should be in the"strapping" and conceps of getting a "rain cover for mobile phone and battery al in one" pluss "100% attchment of connector between battery and phone/gps during movements (read; on the backpack, on the kayak, on the cycle") * I have tested chimps, monkeys, and gorillas in snow, rain, sun on kayak, on hiking, and the hardest test with 53 days on a cycle. * Wikipedia about Solar Cells and the other manufactors here * Uhrweder here Powertraveler here * All my GPS tracks of 3375 km of cycling Norway (North - South - the East) here
