[@darko197]

Norway looks amazing. Thanks for showing me.

[@Khurram_the_hodophile]

Norway is beautiful and your drone videos are amazing. Thanks for sharing

[@billgulsby9328]

Billy Boy, nice drone work. What a picturesque vlog, thanks for letting me travel along. Be Safe!

[@WilliamGloege]

Thanks for coming

[@ThePr8head]

What an AWESOME trip! Beautiful scenery seen from atop your bike life is an adventure. Time spent on your bike is not deducted from your life.

[@WilliamGloege]

Agreed... thank for the kind words

[@waynecompton7612]

Thank you William, beautiful scenery and Take Care 😎👍🇬🇧.

[@stoneblue1795]

Always a pleasure Bill. Ride safe.

[@araxxmortorcycle1007]

We just get back from Norway. We almost seen you there (same AT than Alex) ;-) When you go to north cap, try the road 889, great road on the coast!

[@makutinn0]

I just amazed on your journey! keep safe! a fan from the Philippines

[@guamwild5689]

Dude that's precious...boiling eggs alongside the road! love it!

[@WilliamGloege]

They make me fart... thank for watching!

[@mysilbergsprekken239]

Just one more video to go and i'm all up to date. I love your videos, amazing footage and drone ropes ;) Had I started watching your RTW earlier I would have invited you to overnight at our home in Vestfold (1h south of Oslo). if there should ever be a next time you (and travel companions) must get in touch :) As you said in the beginning on the last video, It's expensive here, speed limits are ....safe... But there are so many hidden diamond roads here which you should get to experience when you first travel this far north. Ah! THANK YOU for your making my head twisting choice choosing between the Trump Tiger and Africa Twin finally get to a stop. I bought the new 18 Africa Twin Standard Tricolor yesterday after seeing it handle pretty much all of the world. Ride safe and enjoy your trip onwards, god bless.

[@dabike]

And the bucket list continues to grow...

[@WilliamGloege]

Mine too

[@neilrose6558]

Keep em coming Bill, excellent commentary & video

[@dukeonearth]

Love the fottage, love the trip.. was there in 2016.👍🏼🏍

[@iancurnow9060]

What an incredible video. Absolutely amazing

[@beachside180]

Thanks for another great vlog, awesome scenery and another must visit destination. Keep up the great content and safe riding. Watch out for those Navy types from behind.

[@WilliamGloege]

Especially from the UK... Thanks for watching.

[@Swarm871]

Your videos are absolutely amazing. Thanks for sharing

[@Maritimer]

Great video ! Norway is beautiful !

[@jde95tln]

Great Video! I have the same stove and yes it is loud compared to the one my buddy uses. I like the fact that it can run on regular gas though. I carry two of the MSR fuel bottles. That way if needed I have a small reserve to get me to a gas station if I run out. But I'm not travelling the world as you are. Still just exploring beautiful California when it isn't burning...

[@WilliamGloege]

I am from Santa Cruz.. I love California

[@cyranodebergerac636]

Great Video. Be safe on your journey.

[@MarkJones-ew7gs]

One of the best Vlogs yet !

[@WilliamGloege]

Funny... I never know if its good.

[@redvette6858]

Just catching up on your vlogs. I Just returned from a 14350 mile 64 day trip on my AT to AK/Canada. As always I have enjoyed your travels. Looking forward to your next video.

[@WilliamGloege]

Thats lots of miles for that many days.. I am sure your sore butt still had fun

[@redvette6858]

It was great even on the factory seat!

[@WulfOnTheRun]

Another great video mate. Loving the drone footage

[@davids251]

Awesome videos you’re doing a great job filming!!!

[@markjones3425]

Jump rope works well for me, small light and a good effort anywhere for as long as you can/want to exercise...good luck & stay safe

[@toby7504]

Nice straping...that will hold a storm....

[@johnytheripper]

amazing production

[@WilliamGloege]

Thanks for following

[@janmorava5503]

Hi William, I love your vlogs. I have seen all of them. I have also Honda AT, it is really great bike. Next year I am going to go to Albania or Georgia, you must see it on your own eyes as weel. If are you going to visit Czech Republic, you are fully welcomed, just let me know. Good luck. Jan

[@WilliamGloege]

I have been to Georgia (2x), Armenia, and Azerbijian on my way to Iran. Great countries.

[@adrianfromlondon9243]

Great trip and cool camping on the beach william, you fancy joining me London to Beijing next year .

[@WilliamGloege]

I look forward to following your trip. Would love to go to China... but $$$

[@nomad5176]

My no.1 tip for outdoor eating is to join some Italians. They are fantastic in cooking, well equiped with good mood and set of spices :)

[@WilliamGloege]

Nomad true. The Spaniards do well too.

[@stephenbecker1463]

WOW! Just WOW!

[@nellaad]

Nice report Bill! I've been to Bodo. long time ago, when I was in the Marines. It was not as cold as I thought it would be during the Winter when I was there. It is North of the Arctic Circle but I understand you get a nice southerly ocean current that keeps it from freezing over! So how long did it take you to eat all those eggs?

[@fljosepe]

Mais um excelente video! :) Cumprimento de Portugal

[@WilliamGloege]

obrigado

[@macrae1985]

Spot the Mercedes G-Wagow Pro camper van at 3.00m...life goal(after the bikes)! :)

[@RobertLes]

[@larrykrupa3505]

Wow, must make next trip to Scandinavia ! Ditch the hat, but love your Vlogs.

[@WilliamGloege]

I love that hat... bite your tounge... thanks for watching.. Norway is tops.

[@JasonBWSBKMotoAmerica]

I'm a new subscriber and let me say your video's are great. Not a lot of talking like some other Vlogers and you really have some funny moments where I'm laughing out loud! I had to comment on this though that food that you cooked at 11:25 oh my god...... It must of came out looking exactly the same as when you finished cooking it HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA sorry I'm so blunt! lmao! Good Job on the videos so awesome.

[@samehsouissi6986]

[@danielciobotaru5721]

love you!

[@Mxove]

Thanks for another great vlog. I live in Norway and you inspire me to explore my own country on my AT! The mosquitos in Norway don't carry any Malaria, but they are plenty up North and pretty annoying ... Is there any place we can see the route you have traveled through Norway? (GPX Track?)

[@araxxmortorcycle1007]

Here's what we've done 1 week ago : www.myrouteapp.com/fr/social/folder/824125?mode=share Hope it helps.

[@Mxove]

He he he my bad, did not catch that the first time I watched it...Good one ;-)

[@beebeer]

Malaria in Norway, that's news to me.

[@nellaad]

He said, He did not want to give any of the bugs Malaria!

[@WilliamGloege]

Listen carefully to that part... you heard it wrong

[@beebeer]

Sorry, I need to get a new hearing aid 👂

[@markjones3425]

Outside we GO!! How's your daily exercise routine working out Willy boy?......

[@WilliamGloege]

Mark Jones not working well. Diet is though.

[@northernnorton]

which rotopax and mount did you get for the sw motech pro side carriers?

[@johnwayne4872]

Hey William, Iam planning to go riding in south america. Since you have your drone for not so long do you like it ? Its easy to use ? But for certain it improve your vids. Keep up the good work. If you can give some tip time to time regarding long time riding, from motorcycle to camping to whatever.

[@WilliamGloege]

I am on my 3rd Mavic Pro. I love them. Practice makes perfect.

[@MyBobbyjohnson]

Nice as always, u ever going to Iceland?

[@WilliamGloege]

I would love to... soon

[@JOA-S]

hearing English speaking people say Norwegian names is the funnies thing XD

[@aaronspicer1093]

Lol calling out the trolls. I love it.

[@FloridaOutdoorAdv]

Great vid Will, how much are the ferries more or less? Thanks

[@LightRiderTeam]

Greetings from Florida... I was going to ask the same question. Florida Outdoor Adventures, are you also thinking of planning a trip over there?

[@WilliamGloege]

Between $8-$40 depending on length of trip. Not Bad for Norway

[@FloridaOutdoorAdv]

Hi Light!, I have already shipped Tatanka (my Tenere) to the UK. Sept 8 I fly there.

[@LightRiderTeam]

You are so lucky - I envy you! I'm hoping for 2019 or 2020... Hope to meet and/or ride with you in FL sometimes. Ride safe!

[@FloridaOutdoorAdv]

Light 🍻

[@ShelleyRaskin]

You must be hungry...that a new Klim jacket?

[@WilliamGloege]

Yeah.. the new Badlands... I will do a review soon.

[@jamesbuckingham8073]

What’s the make of your folding camp chair?

[@WilliamGloege]

James Buckingham REI. ITS A HELINOX ripoff.

[@joeyy33]

Do you carry your own straps for the ferry or are they provided?

[@WilliamGloege]

They are provided

[@joeyy33]

William Gloege thanks for the reply. Your videos totally help with the graveyard shift up in Truckee.

[@FloridaOutdoorAdv]

same here

[@b-ikem-orethisw-orld945]

Are the ferry's part of the highway system or you have to pay>/?

[@WilliamGloege]

Pay... between $8 and $40.. not too bad for Norway.

[@sergeirachmaninoff5989]

I finally bought a brand new (2017 though) Africa this year and only a few weeks later went to Nordkapp. This bike is amazing! I didn't make it to Lofoten due to terrible weather. It was my 3rd visit to Norway and I love this country. Probably going back next year. Cheers, www.yeuop.pl

[@WilliamGloege]

Welcome to the club!

[@sameergodbole477]

Hi, have u stopped riding or stopped posting videos. M bored of watching the same 1s time n again.

[@alrightdave6135]

That’s the correct way to tie your bike down. Using the centre stand is incorrect
