On the trip over the states - I'll be stopping in on this page and write of the experience I've been making on this trip.
I'll be writing a tour-guide of the problems u can or will run into on a tour like this one - the flora and other sites or usefull ideas that everyone needs to know before making a trip like this.
I've been talking to some bicycle-enthusiats that have recomended me on some bike-ideas to this trip.
Have now bought my bike and it's gonna cost 13.000 kr incl. bags front and back. (3250 USD)
I'm also outlooking for sponsors on the trip.
Any sponsership is welcome to contact me, via this site or e-mail to me on:

With this link u can see how easy it is to fold the bike and fold it out again so it's ready to drive on again: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3tgdlk8xlc
Here's a picture of the bike - when I'll be flying to the US, and when I'm not bicycling...
The BROMPTON-bike is the most convenient bike for everyone - old and young - 'cause u can take it with u whereever u go.
