Cycling in Finland

[elapid]

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...
