29" is the new 26"!



Ok, so as you might have gathered from reading the "where" section on this site our big bike trip will take us half way around the Baltic Sea. But as a small warm up we thought it would be cool to explore the countryside of Russian Carelia. If not for any other reason than to do something we hadn't done before.

When the good people at Nishiki heard about these plans, they very kindly provided us with sturdy 29" mountain bikes to make the journey more pleasant. Having been on roads like these with road bikes, this addition to our fleet is more than welcome!

This first mini adventure will take place in the beginning of June and we'll be sure to share with all of you the highlights. But first we need to do a few test runs to get better acquainted with these oddly bulky bikes. Stay tuned!
