That is really something special. The idea that this guy planned and executed a project like this to completion is just over the top; My hat is off to Knut for sticking with it for 10 years. All three of those skills (plan, build and finish) I could only dream of having, if I'm honest.
Magnus was a great interviewer, too. He asked questions that enthusiasts want to ask, and he let Knut give full and complete answers. He (Magnus) was also able to give a pretty good idea of what the experience was like. 300 km! Knut is a very generous host, and I'm sure that sauna at the end was a necessity, not a luxury.
Thanks for posting this. As always, I'm awed by the size of the 917. So low, so tiny.
