Thanks very much for the info Moto.
I do have a GPS - it's a TomTom 7 something and has the complete maps for N & E Europe and Russia.
I've driven\ridden in large cities in the Uk and also driven in SE Asia - so hopefully shouldn't be too daunted by Moscow standards. LOL
The plan is to stay within the 3rd ring ring in Moscow, probably within or near the 2nd ring - maybe around/in the Tverskoy district, which I think is close enough to the centre\main attractions even on foot but certainly by metro.
Although, I'll have a look at Kitai Gorod.
The longest run between cities will be between St Petersburg & Moscow - Google maps shows the E105 between the 2. So will need to work out whether to take that to find something else.
That's a 450 run - initial thoughts are to stop in Tver overnight, then continue to Moscow the following day. Or probably stop at somewhere like Valday which is more halfway.
Lane-splitting - LOL, I do that all the time in the Uk at traffic lights, so hopefully that habit will serve me well in Russia.
Thanks
Dibs
