Corona Virus Update - Norway is opening up - it's back on!

In the summer of 2020 I will be riding my blood red motorbike “To Hell and Beyond” for fun, and to raise awareness and money for Haemochromatosis UK. 

Hell exists! It is a small town in Norway, just outside of Trondheim. Apart from its amusing name, its attraction as a destination is that it sits amidst some of the most scenic and enjoyable biking roads to be found anywhere. 

What could be a better excuse to hit the road than to promote awareness of iron overload and have fun on the way?

On this trip, I will be aiming to ride from my home in Shropshire, via Holland, Germany, and Denmark, through the mountains and fjords of Norway all the way to the Arctic Circle, wild camping along the way. If all goes well, the plan is to push on to the North Cape – the most northerly point accessible by road in Scandinavia and the land of the midnight sun - a total of approximately 5-6,000 miles there and back, taking two to three weeks. 

I only received my diagnosis of genetic haemochromatosis in 2018, after four years of reporting symptoms and repeated high iron count results. 

I will be looking for sponsorship between now and next summer and aim to give frequent updates on my progress via social media along the way.
