Stage 12 etap 9 - April 16 2026

By Mark · Journey: Cycle Exped to Japan via Finland · 62 km

Interesting stay last night at the end of a big day in a kind of lodge called ‘My Reset Farm’. I was the only guest and encouraged to sit with the owner by the log fire while his guys did whatever was needed.
It is a sunny start but the wind is still quite strong. Today is around 80km and 700m to Istanbul airport. This is the end of stage 12
