Norse legend has it that as the gods Odin, Honir and Lodur were walking along the beach
one day, they found two logs. From these, they made the first two humans: Ask, the man,
and his wife, Embla. From then on, Midgard – the world of men – would be their home, and
that of their descendants, the race of explorers, warriors and traders that we call the Vikings.

But Norway is not just about ancient history. It's also paradise for the motorcycle rider.
Between Cape Lindesnes in the south and the North Cape, no fewer than 90,262 kilometres
of road offer an open invitation to the tour-loving biker. Norway's coastline measures
2,650 kilometres in theory, but if you take into account all the fjords, bays and offshore
islands you can just about multiply that figure by ten and the wealth of natural beauty
by at least as much. Plus marvellous roads with countless corners that are sure to set
the heart of any motorcycle rider beating just that little bit faster.
