Tour de Nordkjosbotn

This day in May I took my bike out for a ride. I started in Nordkjosbotn, stopped to go to Storvannet (elevation 330 m), rode to Rud and back to Nordkjosbotn again. I totaled 18km on the bike and maybe 2-3 km on foot climbing the steep valley side and going down again. Refreshing!
