July 8th/ Skelleftea-Sandvika: 696 km

Jour 15

I exit camping and ride again on the coast road...still so boring! First important moment of the day is in Umea, I go to the desk of the ferrie company I should have used to cross from Finland to Sweden, and a charming blond pays my ticket back. Now I can achieve my second goal of the day : find a tire. I search for a bike shop in Sundsvall, and find one by chance.

Le magasin de plus cher du monde

So, it will be here. I want a Michelin, but the guy only sells Bridgestone or Metzeler. He shows me his stock, and the winner is : BT 014. The mechanics tells me he has crazy lot of job today, so, that would be better if I undo the wheel by myself. Let's go !! Then the guy mounts tires, and tells me to go to shop to pay the bill. Aaaargh, 280 E for the tire, instead of 140 E in France. So I pay, no choice, and let's follow the way on a boring forest road.

Camping Suèdois

Evening is quite relaxing, excepted the 4 childrens staying 1 m from me and looking at me during my whole dinner.
