Previous brevets

The first "Three countries" brevet was in 2010. It was directed counter-clockwise starting from Vyborg and finishing in Peterhof. It reminds a full lunch rigth on the 75 km, excelent roads in Finland, average in Estonia and awful in Russia. Epic overnight under a wolfhound guard at Ust-Narva, border-control fee on the Russian side, excelent support all the way.

The second brevet was in 2013. It went through Pushkinskie Gory and Izborsk and slightly differed from the first route. There was no support after Izborsk, awful weather with the raining and front wind all the time. Add 15 km of sandy unpaved road under construction after the Estonian border. The booked cottage denied to accept riders at 5 A.M. leaving them outdoor.

Participation fee: depends on count of riders registered but less than 120 euro including 2 control points and the finish at campings.

How to get to the start from Saint Petersburg:
