Overview
Eight days inside Norway, entirely on tarmac. The Explorer GPX is the category for riders who want the most spectacular roads in Europe without leaving the asphalt: the fjords of the western coast, Bergen, the Jostedalsbreen glacier, the Sognefjellsvegen, Geiranger and the Dalsnibba viewpoint, the Trollstigen, the Atlantic Road, the Arctic Circle and the Lofoten islands. It is the only category open to a passenger. Every category leaves Paris and every category reaches Gate 1 in Oslo four days later, but not on the same road: the two routes are differentiated from the very first kilometre. From Oslo they separate for good, and come back together only in Honningsvåg, at Gate 4, for the final parade to the Globe at the North Cape.

- A mid or large displacement trail bike set up for luggage and rough terrain
