Eighteen riders have already reached the Helsinki checkpoint at km 1753 and are either on their way through the Baltic or already in Poland.
From the checkpoint in Helsinki, riders find their own way to the ferry to Tallinn. There are three ferry companies offering the transfer to Tallinn, where the journey continues.
Mark Gibbens:
“Arrived Helsinki check point 25th June at 5:30pm. In good condition so far.”
Kim Roelants:
“I have just reached checkpoint 1 in Helsinki.
Date: 25-06-2024
Time: 11:31 EEST (so 10:31 CEST)
It’s only cp1 but what a ride this has already been!
I’m currently suffering serious pain in my left knee so I’ll take at least the rest of the day in Tallinn to rest. Maybe I’ll need tomorrow too , so if you’d notice that my dot stopped moving , that’s the reason.”
