Additional bike caravan from Scandinavia to protest against the G8 summit in 
Heiligendamm, Germany
Create 1, 2, many bicycle caravans 

Two weeks to go until the official protests against the G8 summit in 
Heiligendamm begin with the start of a bike caravan from Budapest on April 
5th . Since today it is certain that apart from the east-caravan from 
Budapest(Hungary) and the caravan from Gent (Belgium), which has been in 
planning for a year now, there will be three more caravans starting out in 
Dresden, Berlin and even Stockholm. Especially the bike ride from 
Scandinavia, starting date April 25th in Stockholm, going via Norköpping, 
Linköpping, Malmö, Kopenhagen to Hamburg is a clear demonstration for the 
ongoing internationalisation of the protests against the politics of the 
G8", says Franz Farin from the caravan information office, Rostock of the 
caravans. 

The last leg from the intended bomb release area Bombodrom in Wittstock to 
the blockade points of the airport Rostock Laage will be particulary 
interesting because here all 5 bicycle caravans will unite. "With several 
hundred participants this caravan will probably be the biggest one of the 
last years",Farin explains. 

With the concept of the bicycle caravans the participants want to mobilise 
against the G8 summit in the towns along the route and also temporarily live 
as a solidary collective in differentiation to the capitalist society.
