It has been more than two months in the saddle in polar temperatures (-42\u00b0C was the lowest it has ever been). \"More than 4,000 km and 33,000 metres of elevation gain over ice and snow, against storms and extreme weather, living below zero\". Di Felice set off on 2 February from Kamchatka (Russia) and then headed for Lapland (from Murmansk in Russia to Troms\u00f8 in Norway), the Svalbard Islands, Greenland and Iceland. From Russia he managed to leave a few days before the outbreak of war in Ukraine. The last stage, in the Arctic regions of North America, took him cycling through Whitehorse (Yukon region, Canada) and Alaska (USA) along the Dalton Highway. In total, Di Felice covered 4,000 km and 33,000 metres in altitude.<\/p>
