Are anyone in a 4x4 thinking Nordkaap Dec 08
Hello,
I live here in Oslo, Norway. I was wondering if any 4x4 groups, persons, are thinking about going the full way up to Nordkaap this winter in all the snow. I have christmas break from say 20th December until around Monday 5th January. I would think about joining a convoy, as it would be rather snowy up that way. I am not sure it would be safe for bikes to drive on such icy roads, but who knows.

Possible for bikes? yes ! safe? err not really, but damn good fun!
trelleborg tyres with spikes and some proper kit would certainly make it feasible. Indu is yer man!

I wasn't thinking of doing a trip like this this year but I might be interested in taking the 4x4 as long as I can bring a sledge along.

Interesting! I was just thinking of a quick up-and-down in roughly the same period in our 2cv. I first thought about taking the bikes, but I have no experience whatsoever riding in icy conditions. I might as well learn though :-)
Keep me posted!

daft as it might sound, a 2cv would not be a bad machine for such a trip, narrow spiked tyres, light weight, aircooled.....
only issue would be keeping the windscreen ice free! you could drive whilst in a sleeping bag
