Returned from Oslo today. Left on the 31st (so no, I wasn't home when I wrote the April Fool's Joke) and returned today at the 2nd - and I have to say, Oslo is a boring city. They have no funny attractions, it's dead-ugly and everything is very, very pricy.
When the Norwegians go the other way they must feel like coming to heaven when they arrive in Copenhagen  |

My favorite city is Atlanta ( I'm probably the only one) I wouldn't want to live there but it is awesome.

You'll have to hire a bike rider also to take you up.

Yeah that's true. here is what I would do hire someone to drive me up the mountain, and then see how fast I can go down the mountain. And then after that, see how long it takes for the Paramedics to come after I crash.

Me too. but I don't like descending uphill unless it is only barely uphill because I'm not a great cyclists. If I go to long on a big hill then eventually I find myself going downhill again.

Me too, I hate descending, especially with corners
Although I don't mind if the uphill section is 25%, but I haven't gone steeper than that to be honest.
