Private Notes
Resident motorcycle mad presenter Henry Cole is off on his travels again. The mission: To ride 2,500 miles across North West Russia from St Petersburg to journey's end in Moscow. Henry's voyage of discovery starts with a few days soaking up the luxury and cultural splendour of St Petersburg before he clambers aboard his BMW GS1200 to ride North east to towns that go by the names of Sortavala, Perdrozavodsk and Cherepovetez. Little does Henry know what he is letting himself in for as he leaves the security of St Petersburg behind. This ride will test every facet of his motorcycling skills and mental endurance!
Russia is proving to be one of the most difficult and challenging rides Henry Cole has ever experienced as he is continuing his ride to Moscow from St Petersburg. Firstly he wakes up in the third most polluted city in the world, Cherepovetez, then it's another 1,500 miles to journey's end in Moscow. Henry's ride takes in the faded beauty of towns like Vologda and the stunning architectural wonders of Yaraslav. But just when Henry thinks it's all over he has to face the horrors of the gridlocked Moscow road system in torrential rain.
