Enontekio, Finland

Day Three 101 Miles 2933 ft

There are some days on a long distance ride that just have to get you from A to B. Today was just such a day. 

The weather has remained incredible, considering that we are still 150 miles inside the Arctic Circle, today there was not a cloud in the sky at all and it was genuinely hot – hitting 25 degrees. 

  
This roadside photo could be the south of France except for the road sign. 

Whilst pleasingly completing 101 miles the scenery barely changed all day with perhaps the dwarf birch trees being a little bigger and the lakes less frequent. 

There were only two towns on route 

  
This was the most picturesque -Maze. The monotony of the day was not helped by staying on the same road all day , certainly a record for me to do over 100 miles and not take a turn. 

We have now said goodbye to Norway and are safely in Finland where once again Nigel set up the barbie for the evening meal as we were being eyed up by the midges. 

93 – that lovely road!
