You may click the link to switch the active language. After Kurava, we had a really crazy cycling day. As it was already raining for the last several days, we were quiet happy that only little drops are falling from the sky. It almost felt like good wheather! (Actually our last host told us something that it would be the most rainy summer in latvia since 15 years…) But it was not cold, so who cares.…

Most of them didn’t even understand the concept of travelling by bike. How can you carry all the stuff that you need? The festival happened 45km far from Kaunas where many people  who joined the festival live. Only two of them arrived by bike. In Kaunas, lets better call it Carmass, cycling was…

Cita Abra es un proyecto naciente, es un molino de agua en construcción, en reconstrucción, en transformación… su estructura y su infra permiten albergar actividades y gente: grupos, compañías, colectivos, y biketours :) Por él fluye el agua, generando energía, lo que explica las incontables lámparas encendidas que nos esperaban en cada uno de esos oscuros y…

What follows is an account of my first few days cycling with the bike tour.

You may click the link to switch the active language. From Kaunas, the biketour cycled for 5 days to reach the Curonian Spit, a long piece of land that starts in Kaliningrad (Russia) and streches for 100km in the ocean next to Lithuania, where you have to get a ferry back to Klaipeda on mainland Lithuania. We took the ferry to Nida (again, some kind of a puzzle in which we had to fit 14 bikes,…

You may click the link to switch the active language. From Kaunas we had several days to cycle along the Nemunas river to the coast. We camped on some beautiful beaches on the way. From Kaunas, a perfect bike path led us out of the city for about 20 km. We didn’t meet a single person on the way, and no one in Kaunas seemed to know about this path. Eventually, the bike path turned into…

You may click the link to switch the active language. From Minsk we cycled for two days to Kamenitsa / Каменица. Due to our tight schedule, this was our only proper wild-camping night in Belarus, which we spent without problems on a beautiful meadow that smelled like Thyme. On the first evening, when we cycled through a small village, suddenly we were surrounded by dozens of kids on bikes. They were very eager to fill our water…
