Biketour2009: Feel the heat! *06.07-28.08, western Balkans*
BT international coordinators - 01.06.2009 23:18
The 19th edition of Biketour will take place this summer through the western Balkans. Welcome to join us on environmental actions and tour through Macedonia, Albania, Montenegro, Bosnia-Herzegovina and Croatia, and a kick off critical mass in Belgrade. Registration deadline set for 19th of June - roll along!
The Biketour is an international mobile community that each summer comes together in a different part of Europe. It is based on 'do it yourself -diy- environmental activism' which means so much as that knowledge, decision making and work-to-do is shared among participants, that we like to have a beautiful ride but also try to do it basic (move by share peddle power, low profile camping, veggie food) and last but not least: that biketour links with environmental issues in the region and beyond. This year we'll have extra focus on Climate Change and Energy. We hook up with campaigns of local groups on the way, share experiences, have workshops, actions and events... Feel the heat, time for action!
The 6th of July we'll have a kickoff action in Belgrade on bike transport for the city, after which we hope to find a sponsored transport by train to Skopje. From Skopje the actual tour will start, which will lead us from Macedonia, to Albania, Montenegro and Bosnia-Herzegovina, to finally end at 28th of August in Croatia, at the MuM-festival (2008mum.blogspot.com).
Everyone with a bike and some fine energy can join us, for just a part of the trip or the whole event.
