Headwind again today, it's not that far! Maybe I should have taken the train 🤔
I stopped at an inn with local farm products for a cool drink - and internet again 🛜 👍🏼 I haven't had so much internet connection in a long time!!
Krasnodar, well: big city. Somehow chaotic. You prefer to ride on the sidewalk

The village Druschba is located in the Republic of Adygea. There is also excellent cheese here. However, it's a bit silly to take with you in this hot weather!
I also leave my sleeping spot on the stubble field quite early!
During the night, a mole has immortalized itself with its little teeth in my (no

Mornings after Uspenskoje for ☕️
And from there continue to Armavir, to avoid being on the highway.
Luckily, I had internet access again today and could report in and quickly look up some things online.
However, this also held me up a bit and so I didn't really ride much.
In spring, I had the problem that

The driver now turns off to go home. I can continue cycling on the "Kawkas" (Caucasus) highway. The road is good, the shoulder here is wide and the wind 💨 has subsided.
There is a permanent police checkpoint (station) here.
Take an exit to a village to find a place to sleep ⛺️.
Otherwise, unfortunately

The first km are missing, due to lack of navigation.
The wind is fierce and I absolutely have to try to get a ride!
I stop at a parking lot near the bus stop and try my luck. The first van would go to Krasnodar, but it's full 🥺
The second one takes me a few km.
From there I cycle a little bit again, but

In the morning in the park in Elista, I first looked at the streets to see which route I would take. Since I don't really like it here anyway, I'm choosing the originally planned route to Krasnodar and Crimea. Maybe I'll come to the Caspian Sea another time - right now I just don't feel like it. And

First ☕️ and another unsuccessful attempt 🛜 - in a hotel. The lady then said: if it's not a Russian SIM (or from former states), guests won't get internet anyway. Small comfort - but it doesn't help me.
Then I consider if the hardship is worth it, to cycle out into the steppe in the warm, sunny weather

Since I arrived in Volgograd 9 days earlier, I can now use the time a bit for swimming - and so today I only went as far as Sarepta.
Here stands the world's tallest Lenin statue with a height of 56.76 m.
Oh, I hate city traffic - but eventually I also arrived in Sarepta 😂
Internet - yes, I got it; but

I spent the night in the park 🏕️ right next to the hotel 😂
In the morning there were nice encounters with 🐕🦮 and people.
So it wasn't so bad to pitch the ⛺️ there 👍🏼
So today there's a city tour by bike.
To be honest: I don't like Volgograd that much.
I was "allowed" to photograph the train station

I can hardly believe my luck!!
We were already in Volgograd by 9:40 AM.
And also not far from Mamayev Kurgan - you can see the Motherland Calls statue from afar anyway!! Well, with a total height of 85 m!!!
However, after only a few hours of sleep, I first need some sustenance ☕️☕️, so I'm taking a small

14. August Vom Wind 💨 durchgepustet
Russland ist groß genug um tagelang allein unterwegs zu sein - aber klein genug um eine Radfahrerin nach 4 - 5 Wochen wieder zu treffen und diesmal 850 km bis Wolgograd mitzunehmen 😍😍👍🏼😂😂
Welches Glück kann man haben!!! 🥰

Started in the morning on the Volga in Novokuibyshevsk and during my stop for ☕️ it rained again, the dark grey clouds ☁️ soon came closer again and I sought shelter under a tree and later, at the intersection of the R 228, at a shelter.
Already after the first km on this road I noticed that it was not

Just in time to get in touch with Tanja, with whom I will spend 2 nights.
Only the meeting in the afternoon fell through, as she was waiting for me on the Volga and I was up on the

The sun ☀️ is shining!! Quickly put the washed clothes on the Alkon so they can dry completely. Pack the bags and saddle up - and out of the city. That means first getting the chain lubricated at a car repair shop - with "Масло" = Butter 😂
Back on the R 241 it's going relatively well too - past miles
