Gatwick to Oslo Gardermoen, Bergen, Trondheim or Stavanger (with Norwegian - http://www.norwegian.com/customer-services/travel-information/baggage-/special-baggage-/)

or Ryanair from Gatwick to Oslo Rygge (http://www.ryanair.com/en/questions/can-i-bring-my-sports-equipment-or-bike)

or, if you've got the time, take the ferry from Harwich to Esbjerg and ride the rest of the way!

Stromness hasn't been part of Norway since 1472

I was assuming in my ignorance that Stromness.was in Scotland and Scrabster in Norway. How wrong can you be...

About that much?

could you pack the bike and kit and freight it while you travel in style?

 

[andrew_s]

Dayvo's Gatwick flights will be the cheapest.
For Ryanair, minimise the extra charges by booking online reasonably well beforehand, including bike, and do the online check-in as well.

If you get a cheap Dover ferry and ride, there's several days of food and accommodation to pay for, plus a ferry from Denmark to Norway, or train from Denmark to Sweden (there's bridges now) and more riding/food/accommodation.
The Harwich to Esbjerg ferry is expensive (£400 ish), and you've still to get to Norway.

Ferry from Newcastle to Stavanger?

 

[Crackle]

Harwich to Esjberg ferry is fairly basic as ferries go, not spanky and modern and you've still got a fair way to go. It'd make for an interesting tour though, up through Sweden and back on the ferry from Norway or something.

Ferry from Newcastle to Stavanger?

Doesn't run any more.
All the North Sea ferries stopped 3 or 4 years back. There was one to Bergen, and you could pick up the Denmark/Faeroes/Iceland ferry in the Orkneys

I'm using Norwegian.com for my flights next month. Gatwick to Trondheim going out, Tromso to Oslo to Gatwick return. Bikes are booked on via telephone booking. Pleased with the prices. £74 out, £104 return including tax (excluding bike)
