LOL!!
Three thoughts:
The Russian mud is UNBELIEVABLE and ever-present (even today on paved, city roads), and the primary reason Hitler's Operation Barbarossa was stopped dead in it's tracks, within 10-miles of Moscow. I've never seen such a thick, sticky goo.
Now you know why Russian motorcycles are rarely sold without a sidecar. And, are more often run in the Winter, when the mud has frozen over than in Spring or Fall.
Notice the Toyota in the second to the last photo? Right hand drive, direct from the homeland, and very common the further east one goes in Siberia.
