Our team missed our goal by 30 min or so...I'm blaming that damn headwinde from Dombås in to approx. Gjøvik... We got soaked around Skreia and it was about 8C and I had not enough clothes on...so I was freezing. Had a chance to get on a dry wool base layer and jacket and was doing much better for the last 3.5 hours. But man I was teeth-chattering shivering cold for about 1.5 hours there. Easily the worst part of the ride. Or maybe when we got hit with hail on top of Dovrefjell...but that was early so it was kind of fun (sick I know).
But we finished at 18.30.47 so I'm quite chuffed with that for a first time effort.
Thanks for letting me tag on here in the thread. It always help to meet folks like myself, who aren't quite right in the head :)
Cheers guys and glad everyone made it in!
