How I cycled 6000 miles to the North Cape of Europe on a Free Bike

I recently completed a 6000 mile cycle odyssey from Scotland to the most northerly point of Europe in Norway and beyond, using a free bike I found abandoned in a tenement stairwell. I had noticed that the bike hadn’t been used for several months and thought it was a shame to be going to waste – if a bike isn’t ridden for a long time it can become unusable. I left a note on the bike asking who it belonged to and if they no longer needed it. After a few months without an answer I asked all the neighbours in the block if it belonged to them. No one knew anything about it so I claimed the bike and set about restoring it.
