Heavy Traffic in Ural - Trip Update

Today I'm gonna show you a few minutes with the traffic that it needs to be taken if you want to cross Ural mountain. It actually never ends, in the afternoons it's always busy, but it is what it is. It's kind of pointless to overtake 1, 2, 3, 5, 10 trucks and then to have another 10 ahead and after them another 10 ahead, but also it's, I don't know, I cannot just stay here and wait for hours behind all of these trucks. So to cross Ural from one side to another, so far I've got four hours, but I will need at least one more hour and I stopped only twice, very short breaks 15 minutes. If you stop more often or if you have more traffic, you might need all day. In many places the mountain is just beautiful, not exactly here in this place, but in many many places, all of these passes that I went over. But the traffic man, the traffic is nightmare. Let's overtake Stalin. Never ending traffic in Russia, never ending. Transportation business is a big deal here, I don't know, millions of trucks moving goods from east to west, from west to east, all the time, all the way to Magadan. And Vladivostok. Maybe this was the reason for the heavy traffic, this slow truck. Let's see what will be ahead when I got it. Good for now, to the next. I start six o'clock, got like five hours rain, heavy rain. Then around 12 o'clock it stops and I approach already Ural. Now it's 19 degrees, but man, it was cold early morning, like 12 degrees and rain. And I thought that it's going to be the whole day like that, but luckily it changed. So now, after I finish with Ural, I will ride maybe more 50 or 100 kilometers, find a hotel and stop, and that will be everything for today. Tomorrow I have to reach Samara. All right, see you in the next video. Ciao!
