Hi everyone,
Yes, we are starting the planning of the 2021 ecotopia bike tour. We have restarted the online calls and every ecotopian spirit is welcome to join them as we would like to have more people in the organisation (send it to your friends as well).
In the first online call we were talking about two questions: where and when to make the winter meeting? We have gathered these proposals for the meeting place: Italy/Magari-Moncalvo, Piemonte Switzerland/Koch Areal, Zurich Switzerland/Pichoux (near Undervelier), Jura Switzerland/Arvu's place (near Porrentruy), Jura
You can learn more in details about these places here: https://pad.rankenste.in/p/EcotopiaWintermeeting2021Places
So far it seems that to go to Switzerland it is not required to get tested coming from some neighboring regions. But many countries without a border with the country are listed with increased risk. (You should check this website to find what applies in your case: https://www.bag.admin.ch/bag/en/home/krankheiten/ausbrueche-epidemien-pandem...) Also officially only 5 people maximum can meet together in a house. But if we meet discreetly, it shouldn't be a problem. To enter Italy you need to have a negative PCR(molecular) test which is not older than 48 hours (this applies to all the EU countries, UK, Norway, Switzerland)
If you are considering to come, you should vote in this poll for the place question: https://doo.rankenste.in/poll/YfzCTgRp/vote/ The results will be assesed after one week in the next online call. Let's decide this together.
Make sure to vote as well in the poll for the time question that Falda has sent around already: https://dudle.inf.tu-dresden.de/ZQJqibL2TQ/ We are aiming to make the winter meeting between the end of February and the end of March.
So fell free to vote for prefered options and you are welcome to join the online meetings. They are every Sunday ot 7PM (CET) at https://meet.jit.si/EcotopiaWintermeetingOrganisation20twentywine (We will not use the older /ebtforever link.)
Hope to see you soon!
