RTTAF 2008

Last year we took a trip with H-DOCN (Harley-Davidson Owners Club Norway) to the northern most motorcycle rally in Scandinavia. The tour, which H-DOCN arranged, was called “Norway Run” and started in a tow called Lyngdal almost as far south you can get in Norway. About 15 riders started from Lyngdal and the group got bigger every day, as the group travelled alongside the Norwegian west coast, and was counting 55 bikes when we got to the rally six days and 1600 miles later. The rally, called “Run To The Arctic Fun”, is held the third weekend in July each year. The atmosphere is unique as the sun never sets during the night and the rally site is surrounded by some breathtaking nature. The event takes place at location called “Storfjord” and is approximately 69 degrees north. The rally gathers many people from Finland, and one of the old blokes from Blackout MC had been to the RTTAF on his old Panhead chopper every year since it started 10 years ago. He had also been to 17 Super Rallies on the same Panhead. And for those of you who don’t know, Super Rally is held in a different country in Europe every year! Those fins are some hard boiled crazy fuckers.… And by the way I did NOT tell him that I was driving a borrowed 2000 mod. Ultra and had a Pan at home in the garage.. Go figure ;-)
