My son, Levi Bridges, is currently biking across Russia and Asia. He departed Vladivostok on April 15th, 2009 and so far, his riding partner and he have covered roughly 2000 miles.They too, are following the Russian Federal Highway along the Siberian Railroad. They intend to ride to Porto, Portugal and hope to finish by the beginning of 2010 covering approx 10,000miles. You can follow along on their website: www.paneurasianbiketrip.com

I wish Aaron Huey would give the camera and lens info he used to get the pictures. Great stuff.

Some of the finest photos I've seen of 21st Century FarEast Russia!
