We had a fantastic time in Tallinn enjoying the warm hospitality from family, it was hard to leave.
The ride out was a little bit more difficult than expected. Riding through the city and along the bike paths to avoid the main roads made it a lot easier. There was still one big road we needed to cross and it was a doozy! This was the main road linking Russia to Estonia and it was clogged with huge trucks, one after the other.
It was near impossible to turn left across two lanes with trucks and cars speeding past at 100km.
So we went right and had to walk our bike in the grass on the side of the road till we got to a traffic island and could crossover. When we reached the other side there was a mass of roadworks and no shoulder so we ended up pushing our bikes through the sandy unfinished road. I can easily say it was the worst bit of road I have every been on!
