Cheers, Huw.

oh, nice words too huw!
I'll have a read when I have a bit more time as I'd love to ride across there
Thanks Tom! Aye that was my favourite sign ever, thet sell so many things that you couldn't eat unless you'd been pedalling all day...
Impressive writeup! If only there was a magazine that published such tales...

excellent. I fly to reykjavik on thursday morning to do much the same.
It's an amazing looking place. My sister and her husband landed there yesterday; they're walking from the northernmost point to the southernmost point over three weeks.

I'll wave, we're riding pretty much the same...
Stunning Huw, reminds me of the NWT in Canada. Well done
Inspiring stuff. Incredible photos too!

There's some parts of Iceland that you don't want to cross.
Great pix, and good write-up!
Recognise some of those sights.

What a place. Route didn't quite go to plan but you soon learn to go with the weather. Already planning on how to get back there.
Met the Icebikes team in the mountains and fancy one of their heli-biking tours next time....
