A Russian student video (English) Ice cycling on Finland Bay
With permission:He's from St Petersburg, and with a friend catches the train to a lake or to the Baltic sea. Far too hair-raising for me! Last time (being too early in the season I thought) his friend ended up in the lake, but near enough to the shore. As the commentary goes, the friend has two orange picks on his shoulders to extract himself from the ice. There is mention of ice kiting but I didn't see it, only the indigenous ice fishermen. Towards the end the narrator tells a joke about ice fishermen.
Finland bay is up there near top right corner

You can even drive cars on it when proper frozen
so that happens on selected lakes here, they race on it.
