Road to Rjukan

It was a 14km ride (all downhill) to Rjukan....such fun to ride down, and beautiful views of the valley

p.s. Rjukan sparked many many conversations about the 1980's arcade game Street Fighter, as a character is called Rjukan, turns out Steve was in the State Championships in Melbourne for Street Fighter, and on Friday night actually demonstrated for about an hour all the moves you can do (with a pen for a joystick)...we all rued not bringing a tv at that point

What's the big grey splurge on the road? That remindes me, I nearly ran over a snake last night on my way home.

Ha Ha. Probably! I never played street figher until I went round my girlfriends at the time. She said she was quite good. I chose the monster thing that electicutes people and somehow my wild joystick and frantic button pressing always seemed to result in his special move - needless to say we didn't play that again

jesus...steve was rolling off a list of characters, and was staying stuff like 'up-down-left-left-down-a button' makes him moony (or equally geeky stuff)..was a little disconcerting.

you had a girlfriend?

...sorry, that was meant to say 'you had a girlfriend with a sega megadrive??'
