Finnish War Ride

Two hundred seventeen years ago today, Russian troops crossed into Sweden at Abborfors, thus beginning the Finnish War. After almost two years of war, the eastern half of Sweden was lost to Russia, becoming the Grand Duchy of Finland.

Very foggy ride this morning. I had to stop several times to wipe my glasses. But the roads were mostly dry, and it wasn't quite as cold as other mornings lately. It cleared a bit in Sawtelle, so I could see the moon and take a photo. Then I descended into fog again at the shoreline and rode without eye protection for the last bit.
