- As a child you were probably told not to ride your bike on the railway tracks. Ooops, here's 34 km of just that. We've been riding a few dresine tracks in Norway, but this one definitively stands out with some amazing views and long tunnels, one of which is well over a kilometer long.

Thanks for visiting my town in Flekkefjord! Cheers!
Greetings from Pelion, South Carolina. USA. Thanks for the Beautiful views of Norway.
Awesome to hear that the video and this tiny place in Norway has reached as far as South Carolina. Have a great day 🙂
6:39 "Traveling further" is kinda understating the magnitude of that endless incline.
What i love about a human powered rail rider is the quiet ! That and if there is a malfunction it's usually easy to fix , imagine if a gas powered cart broke down and you had to push it back ! This is simplicity, your country is beautiful and id one day love to go there to see it snd the people ! What would top it off would be to see Angelina Jordan singing live ! That girl is absolutely amazing and is becoming very well known here in the United States ! Have a great day and go Angelina from Seattle !
Wow, that is so cool!!! 🚲 Incredibke scenery, thanks for posting 🙂 Thumbed up and subscribed 👍
Looked wonderful but many people use normal bicycles with outrigger balance wheels and steering guides, they are lighter and more importantly quiet. Never the less if we get back to Europe I'll try and take my wife along. 😎👍
First time seeing people on youtube på sira
Now this is really awesome! Railway bikes! What a way to go. I love it!
I've heard about a badger in the train tunnel but never a beaver.
loved the video they are trying to add a bike rail near my house so i wanted to investigate and seems like it might be fun 😎
When they took off he looked freaked out to me.
Love the quality of this video! One can tell you guys have put a lot of work into it! Do you happen to know any other dresine tracks you can recommend? Thank you!
Thanks. There are two tracks in Ålgård (Ålgårdbanen) close to Stavanger. They're not as spectacular as this one, but still enjoyable.
Trop bien !❤
very cool!!!!!!
You got to do a update on how they made the bike in close detail on how there ride on the railway thanks .
We tried looking into this, but there's surprisingly little information about how they're made. But we'll make a video if we find out, as well as showing how they work. It's actually quite simple: The main wheels ride on the rail with a larger outer diameter than the center so that it doesn't derail. And the other side is simply there for balance, it doesn't grip onto the sides of the rail.
bring your rail bike to the USA we have thousands of miles of unused rails .
We actually went to the US on a decommissioned line last summer. It's used by the Southern Michigan Railroad as a museum. We didn't ride a draisine, but got a ride in one of their trains. 🙂
Do u have to pay for these rides
Yes, it’s 600 NOK (about 60 USD/EUR) per draisine/bike which has space for two adults and two children.
