Over 4.000 kilometers across Europe: NorthCape4000

30. August 2025

Our colleague Nassry has successfully completed the NorthCape4000 – over 4,000 kilometers across Europe, completely unsupported. Just rider and bike, from Italy all the way to the North Cape. The first 100 kilometers he rode together with Fritz Meinecke, later in Sweden he felt pure freedom on endless roads – even though the headwind was tough. Countless meters of climbing, changing climate zones, and incredible endurance made this adventure truly special. He was on the road for 16 days, with bananas, cheese, and chocolate bars as his main food. From day 12 on, he could really enjoy it: endless sunsets, inspiring encounters with riders from more than 45 nations – and the certainty of making it to the North Cape. Nassry – it’s amazing that you took on this adventure!
