Very old granite and metamorphic rocks found in the continental crust. These rocks make up the continental shield. Basically the rocks that make up the continental shelf of each continent. For a more detailed explantion go here ......jdcambOriginally posted by KPicha
What's a "basement rock"? Neat explanation on the rocks. I've always had a fascination with geology.

Wait until Trond posts the pictures from Oppdal. That's a great area both for downhilling and trail riding. (Oppdal will be hosting the Norwegian downhill championship this year)
heh, we have a place called Hell too :devil:Originally posted by ghostrider
I notice there is a town in northern Norway named Hammerfest. There must be some good riding there.
Maybe we could get a group rate :devil:Originally posted by Echo

No, it's real small. 5-6 races each year. everybody knows each other really well. No teams with vans and flashy clothes. Just enthusiasts spending all their money on travelling to the races and hooking up with friends. It's a real down to earth grassroots cup.Originally posted by slcpunk21

Summer can be good 70-90F, water 40-75max, but again, take a look at the map. It's far north. The "Gulf Stream"(Golfstrømmen) makes nice temperatures compared to other places on the same latitude.
Midnight sun far north is awsome!!! I was in Narvik last summer with incredibe weather and the sun is shining at 2 o'clock AM.

That sounds amazing man!Originally posted by N8
I know what you mean about the summer times that far north. I lived for a year and a half about 1500 miles off the coast of Alaska in the Aleutian Islands back in the early 1980's.
It was a blast... midnight picinics and salmon fishing till 3AM.
Our temps ranged from mid 20'sF - 50F winter to summer.
Too bad there weren't mountain bikes back then.
Hey! There's one of those in Michigan, too. :devil::devil:Originally posted by Trond

And I suppose during the winter it freezes over?Originally posted by Trond
