	There will be places to stay for the Spring Meeting. The idea is to stay for as long as you can/want, not to feel like you have to come for all four days. Also we hope to find space so that people can stay on after to help with co-ordination if they'd like to. What accommdation there will be for biketour coordinators will become clearer in the beginning of March.		There will be places to stay for the Spring Meeting.

			* It would be good to start in a city or town where there is a bike workshop because people coming from far away would have to build their bike before departing. (don't want to hitchhike with a bike across Europe).
			* If you are interested in southern Balkans traditional music, you can visit this website : [http://www.tousauxbalkans.net/Cat%C3%A9gorie:Pays http://www.tousauxbalkans.net/Cat%C3%A9gorie:Pays] (sorry it's in French). There you will find a lot of sheet music and videos. Music could possibly help us to communicate with local people. --[[User:Claire\|Claire]] ([[User talk:Claire\|talk]]) 14:43, 2 June 2014 (CEST)

	At the spring meeting in Thessaloniki in March 2014 we came to the following outlines of possible routes for 2014, based on the knowledge and/or contacts of a few projects we had. We aimed for about 1500 km in the outlines, which will surely become longer anyway once we fix more exact routes.

	The route and theme of this year's tour is not yet decided but we are looking to visit projects, join up with grassroots campaigns, NGOs and social movements and communities relevant to structural (economic/political) or personal (e.g. poverty as a result of austerity) crises and how people are finding creative solutions to coping with its effects or fighting against it. We will also revisit themes that we have seen in previous biketours such as 'degrowth', public debt, austerity, economic refugees, minorities and solidarity.
