Safely in Norway we collected our hire car 'the grey Passat': a beast of a vehicle that had sufficient luggage space to take bike bag and all rucksacks etc.
Si drove excellently through out our trip and the the only problems we experienced were:
a) where was the handbrake
b) what to do with toll charges
c) how to use the pumps at petrol station
a) and c) were resolved by asking nice Norwegian people (who fortunately spoke excellent English - the phrase book I bought for £12 at airport, having left one I purchased in England in my car, was ****).
Even after mastering the electric handbrake Si did ponder how to do a handbrake turn without a manual handbrake.
We detoured on route between Oslo and Eidfyord to look at the bike route - it was a long drive for me as the hills were a little bit more hilly (mountainous) than I had envisaged....
