May 20th 2007 - Near Moscow
Sunday, 20 May 2007

After a good nights sleep they went on to Moscow. They rode 620 km with the sun shining and the temperature around 25°C (77°F) making them feel like they're melting inside the protective bike gear.

There were long stretches where little was to be seen but as they got closer to Moscow things changed and everything started to look more modern, almost as if they were riding towards a large American city. They didn't enter Moscow itself but stayed on the outskirts.

It took two hours to find a place to sleep, Rock Ruruua Tepem. There they had a very good potato salad with not so good grilled "stuff" as they put it.

They've begun noticing the flies and Einar has been bitten twice already so the repellents will be used from now on.
