After a bad nights sleep on army cots the brothers continued their journey in 30°C (86°F) and blistering sun. They rode 420 km today. The roads weren't good to begin with but as they went on the roads got better. 

The scenery is changing into hills and valleys and less trees so they can see more of the landscape.

Einar got pulled over by the police today. He spoke Icelandic to them but when he heard a certain Russian word (they'd been told it meant "fine") he pulled out his wallet and paid 100 rubles (which they'd been told was the customary fee) and was allowed to continue his journey.

The tires are lasting better than expected and the fuel consumption is less so they're pleased with that.
