Around Lake Paijanne Race in Finland
Three more nights and then it starts.
Three long days, 1028 km total, 29 special tests, mud, snow, ice, water, rocks, roots, dark at nights... If someone was in Finland during last ISDE you can maybe imagine what it is It's again time for the years toughest enduro race in Finland! I'm participating that event second time. My goal is to finish succesfully. Last year I did. I have now 6 hours in my new 300r. If I succeed there will be about 30 hours. Keep your fingers crossed!

Yes. I hope that one pair of Mitas studded tyres lasts the whole race.

Good luck and keep us posted on your results Cheers
