Anatoly Chamyavskiy is a true adventurer. Born in Tajikistan, he has a passion for motorcycles and going far on them. With travels through South America and Russia’s infamous Road of Bones under his wheels, Anatoly set himself to even greater challenges—exploring the far north-eastern reaches of Siberia.

In his first book, Between 2 Oceans, Anatoly attempts to cross the Chukotka Peninsula from the Pacific Ocean to the Arctic Ocean. You may have seen photos and articles from this adventure, showing his approach to the difficulties along the way. For instance, he carried an inflatable boat to enable crossing the region’s many rivers with his bike on board. Previously he’d had to rely on chance encounters with trucks.
