ESA Bamboo Bike Ride Crete 2018

25/05/2018

We're glad to announce that Gaia made it safe and sound to the clear waters of Falasarna Bay where this year's Bamboo Bike Ride - Crete comes to an end.

Day four of our Bamboo Bike Ride across Crete was short and sweet. One last time we had to ride up the coastal mountains. On the other side waited the sandy beaches and warm waters of Falasarna Bay. This marks the end of this year's Bamboo Bike Ride - Crete. It was amazing to meet so many inspiring people and make new friends on this wonderful island! Thank you all...

We received an amazing welcome from the Biolea family with water and wine! On the mountain top overlooking olive plantations, we were shown the ugly side of human behaviour... of using plastic in irresponsible ways. The volunteers collect trash on the beaches and use it for art, to inspire an alternative way to treat what we consider garbage. One man's rubbish is another man's gold. Thank you Chloe Dimitriadis!

Feeling happy is an understatement!! We started the journey from Olive Ranch in Nio Chorio (after sleeping in a Cornish fishing boat!) then stopped at Ταβέρνα Πιπεριά - Taverna Piperia in Kalyves for slow food breakfast and then a hearty (beer) and late lunch at Salis Restaurant in Chania for a vegan meal.
A big thank you for the hospitality along the way...

The excitement is definitely building up now as we'll travelling to Crete in less than 2 weeks time. With us, we'll be bringing three bamboo bikes to ride across the island East to West. On the way, we'll be stopping in Rethymnon, Georgioupoli, Vrysses, Vamos, Kalyves, Chania, Planatias, Tavronites and Kissamos to talk and learn about eco-living, circular economy and last but not least bamboo bikes.
