Scandinavia
My trip in july 2023
through Germany, Latvia, Estonia, Finland, Norway and Denmark
Sustainable travelling with an Energica Eva SS9 through the Baltic States and Scandinavia.
Beautiful landscapes, exciting routes and unforgettable adventures on two quiet wheels.
Have fun with the ride !
Update the system – always make sure that the 14kw Eva has all extras. Thx to Richter & Zech in Wendelstein
Yes, finaly the trip is starting. First destination – Magdeburg
Just two bikers on the ferry Travemünde-Liepāja. The other one was Kees from the Netherlands. Cool guy.
Instead of a stupid E, just a blue license Plate and X for e-drivers. Latvians do it better.
After 1.5 hours of various attempts to get electricity, these two Latvian Tesla guys came to help and translate. Thanks, I arrived in Riga today.
One of the last charging stations I had noted in Latvia. Just 10 meters above me, a stork flies overhead with material for his nest which was only 60 meters away. How nice can be charging break. Big smile.
A little small talk with the Finns, Czechs and Lithuanians while waiting for the ferry. A big laugh when asked if I wouldn’t be afraid if it rained. Electric shock.
Insider tip from the Finns. Fine cuisine and first-class finnish dishes with fish and meat in Helsinki. The deserts are also recommended.
Absolutely to recommend. The Motorbike Museum in Lahti. And eat one of the delicious burgers there. Yummy.
Meet this biker guys at Kärsämäki. They told me everything about the finnish Biker meetings. The whole year. Thanks for the friendship patch!
Hello,.. my first problems. A wobbly side stand. It’s not the screws, it’s a broken thread in the engine block. I hope I can find a solution in Tornio, 3 kilometers from Sweden.
The Raja Motor team helped me directly. Cutting a new thread was unnecessary. Just two longer screws helped. I can’t speak finnish, he couldn’t english but the communication was perfect. I could hand over a friendship patch because they don’t want money. KIITOS PALJON
12 noon, polarcircle.
Take care in Lapland.These magical animals are unpredictable on the road.
Hello Finland, thank you for your helpfulness, warmth, positive curiosity and craziness. I really enjoyed driving through your country. Now I am in Norway but I will come back.
PS: and I also learned something from you. Beer in the sauna is absolutely refreshing 🙂
A completely new landscape that inspires me and is fun to drive!
Tried to use the charging app for 1 hour. Nothing worked. Then Marius from Gullesfjord Camping came with the loading chip. The Energica is ready for the Lofoten again.. Thx Campsite Team 🙂
Sun and rain alternate. Damn nice Tour at the Lofoten. Big smile.
Last day at the Lofoten / Norway.
Had a quiet night in the wooden cabin and blueberries for breakfast in front of the door
Sometimes, the freelancer and designer has to work. So you can do the laundry and cook something delicious. A nice break at Lundhøgda motel in Fauske.
The E6 in the north is actually a Norwegian highway. Nevertheless, impressive and idyllic in many passages. A pleasure to drive 🙂
When you drive the E6, you pass the Arctic Circle at Saltfjellet. Don’t forget to visit the Arctic Circle Motorcycle Museum. Rolf had a nice collection of vintage motorcycles, cloth and other accessories. And, a good coffee !
Small talk with the biker gang from Romania and Hungary. Then I had to find out that the beer I had bought for the evening was non-alcoholic ^^. Big laugh, they helped immediately – with a delicious fruit maker / obstler. Thx and a safe journey to the north 😉
Sometimes it’s just a few steps away from the charging stations and you have these amazing landscapes. Smile.
Trondheim reminds me to Rekiavik. A chic and modern city center with many cafes, shops and culture and the exterior region the coloured houses with wooden facades. Like.
Fine journeyman from Lüneburg. Traveling now 2.5 years. Had worked in northern Norway and is now looking for something in Bergen… Good luck and that you are finally home for Christmas.
The motorcycles are always allowed to go forward, and,.. pay the Ferryman at Sølsnes Ferry!
Cook something else, charge the engine, enjoy the valley and look forward to the Trollstigen Pass.
Driving mistakes are not allowed!!.. Wow, the old Gotthard Pass is a child’s play. Trollstigen means troll ladder.
The whole day rain 🙁 perfect on the ferrys, to get a hot coffee.
At the parking garage in Bergen: Ladbar motorvogn ladeplikt! It works 🙂
Tire pressure checked, chain cleaned and greased, got a t-shirt and coffee.
I just wanted to say Hello. Mark, Mike and Team.. Tusen Takk!! Energica Bergen / Norway
Found my diner right behind my wooden cabin. Birch mushroom with bacon on pasta. Yummy
Port of Kristiansand. Dear Norway, I had often pipi in my eyes because your landscapes have overwhelmed me. Take care of it and keep your politeness, human warmth and helpfulness. And, since then, a European role model for electric mobility. I’ll be back!
Hello problem number 2.
A flat tire 1 hour before I have to take the ferry to Denmark. Breakdown spray and I’ll be there just in time.
A storm forced me to stay in Aarhus.
Go there in the ARoS Art Museum – one of Europe’s largest art museums situated in the heart of Aarhus, and the only one with a rainbow view on top. Must see.
Hello Denmark. I haven’t seen much from you because it had only rained. But, you have beautiful museums, architecture and friendly people. Now I’m back in a country 🇩🇪 where you pay in cash, there are few CCS charging stations and diesel is subsidized…Commin home baby now
Yvonne from Louis Motorcycle Accessories in Flensburg: „You can get a coffee here and charge your machine in front of the door.“ Thank you. All Louis branches should have a charge station!
Short trip to Sweden at IKEA Erfurt 🇸🇪 hotdog 1€, soft drinks 1€, charging 0€ 👍😁
Last charging station Coburg / Bavaria . I arrived my home healthy and happy and probably i need a while to process my experiences. But at first – take Ingrid ❤️ in the arms
If someone is interested and wants to follow my tour? I wish you success 🙂 – the charging structure is everywhere present.
Tour on google maps
