CYCLE CUBA 2015
( 3000 km )
Experience Cuba's vibrancy, culture and fascinating history Cuba is an increasingly popular holiday destination, and it's easy to see why. The music, beaches, old cars, striking architecture and revolutionary history all combine to make the perfect cultural destination with warm hospitality and a lively atmosphere.
Gonna cycling following the coast around 3000 km and will visit all the 'must see' places that Cuba is famous for: the crumbling colonial buildings of Havana, the music of Trinidad and the revolutionary history of Santiago. Away from the coastal resorts, visitors are very much in the minority, allowing us to observe the genuine warmth and hospitality displayed by the Cubans.
Passing through stunning countryside with a patchwork of plantations, fields and jungle, we are able to appreciate the traditional way of life that continues today.
Besides cycling, I'll hiking to the highest peak of Cuba - Pico Turquino 1,974 m (6,476 ft)
Every day, after a day of cycling, I'll no doubt welcome Cuba's specialty - a refreshing mojito! :P

..." The expedition along the Mediterranean coast will transform the motto “i THINK!” It is connected with the Factor Foundation The foundation will unite designers, scientists and researchers, the so called developers of consumer goods. Gathering in groups, the intellectuals will design materials, technologies and products for industrial production, which will spare the environment in the future. Factor Foundation will deal with the reasons for the problem with garbage and not with the consequences of it.
From 1 January 2010 till 14 November 2010 the bicycle expedition “REcycle” will be held along the whole basin of the Mediterranean. The expedition will continue 10 months, passing through 22 countries and covering more than 30'000 km.
My role of researcher, will study the reasons for the problem with the garbage, which I will collect from different countries. The aim will be to analyse the way of thinking of different social, religious and demographic groups regarding the consumption and the environmental protection.
The first topic of the study will be “Recycling the thinking". It will be focused on how people from different countries handle the problem with garbage and what they do in connection with its disposal, how people think and what attitude they have towards the environment.
The second topic will be “Bicycle riding as a way of life, way to stay healthy and to move”. Realisation of a tourist cycling corridor and the first in the world full bicycle tour of the Mediterranean. "
