Hey, so there it is, better late than never maybe. In the future it might get multi-lingual t.me/EBTecotopiabiketour This channel is notoriously late, chaotic, neglected. It’s actually better to come check out than to read. Smtms we don’t have enough internets (or electricity), sometimes too much of it, and anyway it’s mostly meant as ‘counter’ to ‘social’ media.

The Biketour Spring meeting took place from 13 to 16 March in Thessaloniki. We were hosted in a social center called Scholeio (http://sxoleio12.wordpress.com/), a former school which was squatted after being closed. The contacts to this place had been established by some people from biketour 2013 who continued from our endpoint in Cluj all the way to Thessaloniki.

Some biketour feeling came up with collective cooking of delicious, vegan, predominantly organic, meals that…

Hello ecotopia biketour friends, João and Alice, our international coordinators, have been in Barcelona for one month already, they have had many incredible adventures and felt like blogging about what they’ve been up to: We have spent the first few weeks mainly trying to get contacts (an endless task) and looking for concrete places and projects to pass by. We have been working out important dates (registration, starting and end dates, big stops) and making a big tasks plan (website, route details, wiki organisation, propaganda, video, etc…). These are all happily up on the wall in Research and Degrowth’s office…
