Well, that’s Day 5 done. Definitely starting to feel the old ‘500 km tiredness’ starting to kick-in. Was slow and hard going today – that and chilly, waterproof trews and jacket on, which kept the wind off a treat. Not particularly inspiring riding, and was heavily considering a rest day tomorrow – we’ll see!
The last 10 km climb into Kiruna wasn’t that steep, but certainly finished me off for the day. Still, arrived around 1630, had time for a sauna, dins (featured) and getting some supplies in.

No rain, no punctures, no moose (sadly), kebab and chips. Bosh!

WTF? Where is the chilli sauce my friend? What kind of arse end of nowhere are you riding through?
That starts tomorrow – first 100 km with nothing but road. No petrol stations, cafes, shops or kebab houses. I should pack a spare!
You call riding around somewhere with no kebabs at all a holiday?
Oof! Tough day, but it sounds like tomorrow will be fun and you’ve earned all that lovely downhill. Big hugs from me and the nips xxxxx
