Start directly from the harbour, Skatudden. A day without any real possibilities for Bail, at least not without a high price in the form of asphalt.

Start at Skatudden with 4 km of asphalt. Then we follow the water on gravel.
Km 8-13.5 is dream gravel, in the middle of town then it's asphalt up to km 15
Now we get two km of beautiful gravel road along the water.
By far the toughest day of the tour, 12 miles 1,325hm. There are two bails, you can cut a mile between km 15 and 25 and then a bigger one where at km 40 you turn right and thus skip all of Espo, it removes 32km.

Start from Korpilampi hotel. After 3 km we come to Luuk Recreation Area.
Shorter risers may occur.
Nice roads!
After Kunnarla and a few km of asphalt comes a new propaganda party. There is also a bail here if you want. Turn left and cut 9 km, rendezvous at km 24.
Driving without bail, waiting i.a. this
After Rendez Vous it's south again on what is called “Sweet Gravel Road” and yes I can't say it looks wrong?
We are approaching Bemböle, where a coffee stop awaits Kahvila Glims.
A slightly shorter day, but with a hard deadline, the departure of the boat. That means some air in the schedule to create a buffer. If this is not needed, we can have extra coffee, or spend some time around Helsinki.

Start from Polku Hotel
Gravel road for three km, a short bit of asphalt and then a fantastically fine dirt road south of Enäjärvi.
After 18 km we reach Hulttila
At about 20 km, there is a shorter path, approx. 500 m
First coffee break at km 23, Pohjoinen Pirtti. We continue on “Route 2000”.
Short HAB just before km 29, about 300m.
and another short one at km 31.
A short stretch of asphalt, then we go south.
At km 37 we come to Mustlampi, a nice place and lake.
Fantastic road! We cross the tarmac road and come to Katialampi, a good swimming spot, maybe it's hot?
We then pass through Luk outdoor area and reach our lunch spot, Luukin kartano.
The cycle path takes us towards Kurkijärv and a slightly more adventurous route. We are now just south of Korpilampi, where we slept night one. On the way to Keimola Golf club, it's a really nice road.
We are now approaching civilization, but the roads are no worse for it.
The last bit towards Helsinki is of parkland and coastal nature.
Depending on the time and location, we'll probably take an extra coffee or a detour into the city, depending on taste.
