  • Winter 20-21

    gozamite

    This winter we didn’t have snow until 3d of January. It didn’t even feel very strange because last winter we didn’t have snow at all! But then around 10th of january started the “crazy winter” -we cot half of meter of snow in only 2 days and then crazy cold weather!

    This picture was taken 5th of January. It’s our local watertower and it looks like coffee machine!

    In the beginning of January we visited Imatra and we got to enjoy the real winter before it started here in South Finland.
    When the very cold temperatures started my working car’s heater didn’t want to operate anymore so it was impossible to work until I found what was wrong and it was fixed!

    At the moment it seems that I have stop my business because Covid-19 and return to do ordinary work -but we’ll see what happens.

    16th of January

    17th of January we got to see a rare halo in the sky! It was a cloudbow. I’ve never seen it before and now I got quite many pictures of it!

    Now the sun is shining brighly in the sky, the day lasts more than 9 hours and spring is getting closer! 3 days ago it was still crazy cold when the sun was setting (-16°).

  • October ride

    gozamite

    It was almost 3 months that I didn’t ride with my XR! I didn’t even ride too much Enduro but at least few times… Now it was finally time to do some streetriding and because it was sunday I took also my wife with me! We checked our favorite places Fagervik and Mustio Castle.

    First stop at Störsvik sandpit

    The autumn colors are simply amazing at the moment so I took lot of pictures and I also had my drone with me.
    In Fagervik we made the walk through the beautiful area up to the church.

    Then we stopped in a small hill beside the road to take some pictures. I took the pictures with my drone. The place where we made our stop was about here.

    Then the last place to admire autumn colors was in Mustio. This beautiful garden aroung old buildings is simply amazing!

  • Tour around Finland Day 8

    gozamite

    The morning started with the visit up to the “mountain” Kaunispää. We took few pictures there and continued to the next mountain (Urupää) and there we chose the “old road” which is called “The magnetic hill”. Long time ago it was difficult for bigger cars to climb up to the hill (especially in the winter) and somebody made up the story that there was strong magnet keeping them down!

    We checked The airport in Ivalo but we only met one reindeer:

    The road between Ivalo and Inari is very enjoyable ride but usually you will meet many rendeers here! We were lucky since we didn’t see any! We also stopped at “Karhunpesäkivi” which is a big boulder with kind of giant’s kettle inside the stone… And you can go there! There are few strange holes in the inside walls of the stone and this made it possible to make up many different stories about what happened and why…
    But it is known that there was a bear in winter hibernation many times long long time ago…

    These stairs lead you to the stone and the stone looks like this (PicBy Puppe100 – Oma teos, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=71268537) :

    Next time we stopped at the viewing tower of Toivoniemi. It is actually named as a bird watching tower but anyway there’s quite nice view from the tower to the Lapland nature around!

    The actual “Toivoniemi lintutorni” looks like this:

    This you can find near Kaamanen village and there’s also an old airport that was built by German soldiers… or actually their prisoners of war. So still after 70 years there’s nothing but “empty land” in the place where was supposed to be the speedlane:

    From Utsjoki we found our cabin to stay for the next night. We took the luggage away from the bike and continued “naked” to the north…
    There is one museumroad between Utsjoki and Nuorgam. It’s a gravelroad that climbs quite high above the river of Teno and you will have very nice views from there!

    Only few kilometers more north and we were here:
    153728_o
    And because the idea of this tour was to stay in Finland we turned around!!
    Very close there is the road called “Pulmankijärventie“. If you choose this road you will find amazing place without any trees and open landscape everywhere around you!

    This might be the only place in Finland where you can find this kind of view!
    I also had to take a picture of my bike with this bridge (Sami Bridge between Finland and Norway):
