Hey Blackjack!
Seems that we have exactly the same plans only the timing is slightly different.
Most likely we will go in September. June is also a small option.
We were also planning to take Murmansk sort as the turning point. Head North Through Holland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland to Russia Murmansk. Then head South through Russia via St. Petersburg and then West over Letland, Estland, Litovia, Poland and Germany. We hope to do it in about a month.
I'll post any info I find on the HUBB. But feel free to mail me directly.
One question: who know the pro and cons about going in June or September? Is there a chanche to get a glimpse of Polar Light in September? Are the bugs in September as bad as in June? How cold will it be, what do we need for clothing? Will a electric undervest do it?
Any info more then welcome.

PS: Ian, funny to see how we have been standing on the same spots in Marocco to take pictures! Dadas, Todra, Merzouga, Tizi N Test...
Good website. Gonna have to redo mine.
