The route was done by two cars across the whole Russia.[6] There were next cities across the route: Yaroslavl, Nizhny Novgorod, Kazan, Chelyabinsk, Yekaterinburg, Tyumen, Omsk, Nobosibirsk, Krasnoyrask, Irkutsk and Yakutsk. The documentary movie called “59 Parallel: Discovering Unknown Russia” was made after the expedition.[7]

Pole of Cold edit

This expedition took part in February and March 2016 including three cars. The members started their route in Irkutsk and via several ice roads reached Russian northernmost settlement called Tiksi (shore of Laptev Sea).[8][9] The column of cars has visited two settlements which pretend to be Russian “poles of cold”, Oymyakon and Verkhoyansk.[10] The goal of the expedition was composing the detailed route for car travels in the northern part of Yakutia and propaganda of internal automobile tourism and healthy lifestyle.[11]

Many famous Russian explorers and photo bloggers, like Sergey Dolya and Ivan Dementievsky, and the crew of TV channels Russia-1 and Auto Plus took part in this expedition, which was supported actively by the Sakha Republic Government. Two meetings with the head of the Republic Yegor Borisov were arranged, one of them involved winter fishing.[12]

Eurasian Ring and speed record edit

This expedition took part from August to October 2016. The participants using one car crossed the whole Eurasia and visited 14 countries. The total length of the route exceeds 40,000 km, which is more than the diameter of the equator.

The members attempted to beat the Guinness record and travel from Lisboa to Magadan with fastest possible speed.[13] These two cities have the biggest distance between one another in Eurasia. The start of the route was on 23 August in the center of Lisboa, the finish was on 31 August at the entrance of Magadan.

The official record is 7 days, 22 hours and 58 minutes.[14] The latest record included into Guinness Records Book is 8 days, 13 hours and 30 minutes.[15][16]

The route of the car expedition was across six countries: Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and ending in Russia. Two biggest mountain chains, Pamir and Tian Shan, were crossed by the expedition using the stock car.

The participants were taken aboard with cars on the ice of Kara Sea.[20][21]
