>While the scandinavian caravan left from Stockholm today and the eastern europe caravan ist now in Poland after having left from Budapest two weeks ago and carried out various actions in hungary and the czech republic, activists from the western europe caravan are currently making final preparations for their ride. Below is a press release of the group - contact and info adresses are at the foot of the mail.

>With the slogan "wheels for change- ensure capitalism becomes history"
>one of the five bike caravans is starting towards Rostock to participate
>in the protests against the G8 summit (June 6th-8th in Heiligendamm).
>
>As a prelude there will cruise a 'critical mass' through the city of
>Gent on April 27th.
>At the moment the preparations for the West-Tour, from Gent (Belgium),
>via the Netherlands and nothern Germany, are in progress.
>
>"We count on starting with around 20 people, but we expect that much
>more people will join!" Sida Singer said "Together we want to set a
>signal against neoliberalism, exploitation, racism, pollution and
>everybody who shares our ideas is welcome. We want to raise awareness
>among the people and let them dream about a livable future for every
>human in this world, and this is worth fighting for." Proudly she shows
>her banner, "futureworkshop" is written on it.
>
>We do this not only to catch attention, but also to get in touch with
>the people on the street and to discuss with them.
>During their tour of around 1300 kilometers the activists coming from
>different countries will take part in bicycle demonstrations "critical
>masses", theatres and other political actions.
>On the route through cities like Antwerpen, Nijmegen, Gronau/Ahaus,
>Muenster, Hamburg and Gorleben they will deal with subjects related to
>the meeting of the G8. These are for instace the racist
>migrationpolitics of fortress europe, genetic manipulation and
>exploitation of the earth, and the involvement of the G8 in wars all
>over the world, for instance in Afghanistan or Iraq.
>
>The events and actions are prepared by supporters hosting the caravan at
>different stations."We want to use our time together for exchange and to
>build networks with various local groups from different backgrounds"
>Paula Farin explains.
>The cyclists do not want to take part in the whole neoliberal circus and
>the division of people along racist and economic criteria. They consider
>the caravan as a place for experiments where they can realize their
>ideas and ideals (even if only temporarily). The aim is to create a
>non-hierarchical structure during the ride, allowing people to learn and
>act in a self-organised manner. The caravan wants to make it possible
>for all people to participate, regardless of money, bicycle, physical
>condition or papers.
>
>The five caravans will meet on the military testing ground called
>"Bombodrom" near Wittstock in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern on the first of
>June and participate in the actions there. Further they will join the
>protests around Heiligendamm.
