'''Roll up! Roll up! It’s the great Ecotopia Biketour 2008 extravaganza!
'''
'''Where?''' Bulgaria and Turkey (from Sofia to Sarikum)
'''When?''' 2nd July - 14th August
'''What?''' The Ecotopia Biketour is a mobile community that appears for
several weeks each year in a different part of Europe and provides an
environmentally acceptable way to reach the Ecotopia gathering
(http://eyfa.org/ecotopia, http://www.ecotopiagathering.org/) or simply
to cycle in interesting places. Along the way we meet local groups
working on ecological or social issues and support their activities.
'''Why?''' Learning new things, keeping fit, seeing new places, promoting
cycling, meeting new people, supporting local environmental groups...
'''Who?''' If you’re interested in environmental issues, willing to take an
active part in the group, and you have a bicycle, then Ecotopia Biketour
might be just the thing for you. Biketour is suitable for people of most
cycling abilities, and accommodation is usually in tents. Participants
are responsible for tasks such as preparing meals, washing up and since
we don’t have a support vehicle, we also carry our own equipment in bike
trailers. Participants pay a small participation fee graded according to
country of residence and are expected to take part in decision-making
during the tour.

extra remark:
*If you are interested in joining the biketour it is wise to check now if you should arrange a new passport (your passport should be valid for at least six months from the date you enter Turkey) and/or visa (can take up to 30 days to arrange). Informative websites to check about visa are: Ministery of Foreing Affairs Turkey: http://www.mfa.gov.tr/sub.en.mfa?cc4e437c-6769-4d79-9017-10b63c651224 Ministery of Foreign Affairs Bulgaria: http://www.mfa.bg/en/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=4794&Itemid=243 Ministery of Foreign Affairs Serbia: http://www.mfa.gov.yu/Visas/VisasR.htm
Don't forget to check if you need visa (or passport, instead of id-card) for the countries you will pass on the trip to Serbia, Bulgaria and Turkey if you travel by train/bus/car/ bike…  If you have any questions concerning Visa arrangements or if you need an invitationletter to get one, please send an email to yolanda (at) ecotopiabiketour.net

Welcome to the Ecotopedia - the wiki of the ecotopia biketour

Information

Organizing next biketour

This is a self-organized tour! No club, no ngo, no political party. Just some people following an idea - since 1993! In 2008 we will cycle Bulgaria and Turkey - here are some ideas about the route and map.

The following is old text (with some fixing for now):
Does this appeal to you? and do you want to do your share of bt-organizing?
The best is you to come to the nextmeeting, online or in real, to get an idea of the people and tasks, or browse through the meeting minutes. If you live next to it or know great places to visit, talk to Yolanda. We also compiled some texts about what bt is and how to organise biketour and collected some nice ideas about improving BT.
Right now we are also working on the website. And where the hell is our stuff?
You can also help us online, even if you do not live next to the route. We do need help with moving pages from our old wikis and websites - have a look down to archive - to this wiki. Also the website needs doing: writing, designing and creating an ez-publish template.

Tasks

Please help with some of this:

  • make up a slogan for Biketour 2008!!!!
    • Designers: we need a design/logo for flyers/stickers about Biketours intentions to spread during the Biketour. Besides this we need a design for this years t-shirts...
      • Brainstorm of ideas about improving BT


  • Wiki organization
    • take care of moving old texts to here
  • Website
    • ez-publish knowledge welcomed
