Changes

There are plenty of CouchSurfers in the northerly Sandviken suburb, so you might want to hitch from there in the morning. But unlike it may look like from the map, it's impossible to hitch a ride from the juncture between Sandviksveien and the many tunnels on Åsaneveien leading north. It's better to take a bus to '''Åsane Senter''' (a huge mall half an hour North of the city, which is very close to the juncture between the E39 (North) and the E16 (East), ''good dumpsters at ICA''). From Bryggen you can take bus number 50, 71, 80, 90, 270 and 285. Or you can use free IKEA bus going every full hour from Busstasjon(platform I) and Bryggen exactly there . Check the timetable, if it's too late you can blackride one of usual buses going the same way. <small>''checked in July 20152016''</small>. Close to the bus terminal there is a Statoil gas station where you can ask drivers, or just take a nice walk further to the next big roundabout, where you'll find two nice hh spots perfect both for hitching North and East. It's quite a walk, but considering the rain and the not excellent hitchability of Western Norway, reaching those two spots does pay off!
