Field notes
The author describes riding mostly from June to August on a steel touring bike, initially with two panniers, and notes that the distances came from the odometer. Route entries give practical surface and transport details: the Päijänne loop includes a summer ferry, while the Saimaa ride involves ferries and a boat. The page lists GPX files, a gear list, and a rebuilt gallery as future additions; its stated last-updated date is 12 August 2020.
