Funny whiskey guy :-)
Nobody spoke about "Besenwagen"

No,no; this expedition is one of my dreams; (cycling to the other side of the world)
My best friend replied 1 year ago, he would like to accompany me by a campervan. (He does not like sports :-( but he would like to do the same as me). That was the beginning of our project.

Our plan is to use the campervan to visualise worldly wisdoms and other speechs on the surface; depend on our sponsors;
and to test it as a prototype for an alternative operating engine.
When we do not find this sponsor til Aug-09, I continue my expedition alone or with a bike partner.

It does NOT mean that i will use the campervan for any transport
(FYI, I cycle all ways by bike; i have not used any airplane, car, train, bus for ages; I prefer long distance cycling)

Route?
At the moment, I am thinking about to change the expedition route;
current route: ... rumania. moldava, ukraine, russia, georgia, turkey, georgia, kazachstan, china, vietnam;

cheers,
