Day 76 – Pitkäjärvi to Turku

The campsite I stayed at as lovely and quiet which meant I slept well last night and felt very fresh this morning. I left nice and early, making a good start towards Turku.

I’d only just started and I got my third puncture of the trip. This time it was my front wheel. It didn’t take long before I was back on my way.

I got shouted at by a van driver in Turku, I’m not sure what he said but I could tell it wasn’t friendly. He then threatened me with a golf club which I thought was a bit harsh if he just wanted me to use a cycle lane. Who knows?

I have a ticket now for Stockholm leaving tonight. Unfortunately the cabins were all full so I’m going to take my sleeping bag on and sleep on the floor. Not looking forward to it but a cabin was almost double the price and I wouldn’t be in Stockholm until Wednesday.
