Aihe: [Cm-roma] bike-caravan to G8 in St. Petersburg
Caravan against G8

The G8 will hold its annual Summit in St.Petersburg, Russia, on July
15th to 17th, 2006.

> The idea


One possibility to get there could be the bike-caravan from berlin to
petersburg via poland and the baltic states. It is also one possibility
to protest against the Summit and show alternatives to the system behind
it on the stations we pass.

> What is already prepared?


At the moment it is only an idea. Clear is only: the caravan will start
around 6th of June in Berlin and the route should lead through Poland,
the Baltic States towards St. Petersburg. One possible route could be:
Frankfurt/Slubice, Poznan, Torun, Olsztyn, Suwalki, Kaunas... Another
possibility could be partly the euro-bike-route R1 (Kostrzyn,
Miedzyrzecz, Pila, Bydgoszcz, Grudziadz). At the moment there are mainly
people from Western Europe involved, who where active in preparing the
bike caravan to G8 in Gleneagles.

> Wanted: Co-organizers, bike experts, local people


We are now looking for people, who would like to:
- coordinate a part of the tour especially in Poland, Lithuania and
Latvia. That means: check possible routes, thinking about campgrounds
and so on.
- host the caravan in your town/village. This could be an opportunity
for public info-action about G8 in your neighbourhood.
- collect/prepare/translate infomaterial about G8 in
polish/lithuanian/latvian/russian language which could be used during
the tour.
- participate. Travel by bike, enjoy the nature, discussions, actions..
