Cycling in Finland

I am attending a conference in Helsinki this July and am hoping to rent a bike and cycle around the Aland archipelago. Does anyone have any recommendations on this or other cycling destinations in Finland, and where to rent a bike?

I would be surprised if there isn't a Finn on this forum...short of that perhaps one of the Swedes or Norwegians can help. Ingsve or Maltiv???

I do have a colleague from Finland but I don't think he's into cycling but he may "know someone who knows someone"...

I'll ask him and see if he can't help...

The best way would be for you to take the train from Helsinki to Turku, which is a good starting point for exploring the archipelago. Please feel free to ask anything, hope I can help :)

Thank you!! That is awesome. I will look over the links tonight. Thank you again.
