Overview
The Overview 2012 page outlines the key a ideas of the tour this year.
+ Why are we touring by bicycle? +
- Because it will be a crazy awesome adventure.
- We want to influence by example: if we can travel hundreds of km from one place to the next hauling loads of gear, surely you can manage to ride your bike to go grocery shopping a few km down the road!
- The revolution will be pedal powered.
The route
This years tour begins in Spain and finishes in Italy. The theme is degrowth and we are now searching for projects and actions to visit and participate in this summer.
