Turning ideas into action
Less than 3 months before we hit the road!
In May 2005, Marie Collin and Christian Blanchard
will hit off the tour, their destination: the Americas.
Put together by the Velopax
association, this Vert
Demain project is not merely about riding 45
000 Km on a bike, for most importantly it wishes to
promote respect for the environment.
The Green Awarness's mission is to sensitize populations
to ecological matters
and to meet some environmentally friendly inovative
practices that could be transposed in other
places ; it's also to achieve a real persuasion
through this "good practices" valorisation.
We dive into the adventure with the support of Cycle
North South and CADR67.
Untill D day we will work hard to raise the necassary
funds and will accept any help. Thanks to the very special
help of the MAGE-UQAC, which provides an important part
of the budget
