Cycling Karelia

As a continuation of the Cycling Karelia series, Andrey Serdyuk and Alexander bochkov put together this video of their time on the road.


 

Karelia is a section of land that divides Finland and Russia. With some of the richest history in all of Europe, wars going back to the 13th century, massive urban decay, and a full economic collapse after the fall of the Soviet Union. You should really read about it’s history if you get a chance. Karelia is nestled between the White Sea and the Gulf of Finland. With some of the most extreme winter weather conditions, Andrey Serdyuk and Alexander bochkov decided to tour this area around New Years.
