Soccer desert Baltic States? Well, still in enough cafes and bars you would have the possibility to watch the games with comments in the exotic languages Lithuanian, Latvian and Estoninan … Thus, a survey for the Lithuanian news magazine “Veidas” show, that 27 % of the Lithuanians show interest in the World cup, 54% some and only 19 % “not at all”. Sure, that's nothing compared to Basketball (in which only 7 % show no interest). Okay and here the voting of the Lithuanian people: winner of the Fifa World Championship will be: “dontknow” (14,8%), followed by Spain (12,4%) Brasil (11.4), Argentina (10%) and England (9%). Wow. What kind on experts! Let's get back to cycling...   Here the News:   <ol> <li>News from Velo-City.lt and BaltiCCycle.eu </li> <li>Update: Ferry connections in Lithuania: Crossing the Curonian Lagoon and Kaunas-Nida by speedboat</li> <li>First Public Bikes rental system in the Baltic States starts in Riga and Jurmala</li> <li>Start of non commercial cycle events</li> <li>Other small news </li> </ol> From Lithuania Yours Frank "Frankas" Wurft <a href="mailto:frankas@balticcycle.eu">frankas@balticcycle.eu</a> <a href="http://www.balticcycle.eu/">www.balticcycle.eu</a> <hr />       <p align="LEFT" style="margin-bottom: 0.5cm; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; border-width: medium medium 1.1pt; border-style: none none double; border-color: -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color rgb(0, 0, 0); padding: 0cm 0cm 0.07cm;">If you have problems reading this newsletter, read it online or subscribe or unsubscribe to the newsletter by clicking on the following link/web page: <a href="http://www.dviratis.lt/cgi-bin/dada/mail.cgi">http://www.dviratis.lt/cgi-bin/dada/mail.cgi </a>   <hr />       <ol> <ol> <ol> <ol> <ol> <ol> <ol> <ol> <li>News from Velo-City.lt and BaltiCCycle.eu </li> </ol> </ol> </ol> </ol> </ol> </ol> </ol> </ol> <hr />       After our move around the corner (from Bernardinu 10-10 to Bernardinu 10-6) our work goes ahead.

BalticBike bicycle fleet includes 100 bicycles. When the project is complete, they will be located in 11 easy-to-access stands in Riga and Jurmala. Renting of a BalticBike bicycle is easy and convenient: one has to register online at www.balticbike.lv or make a call to +371 67788333.

The region has a lot of beautiful natural sites, nice small towns, rich national culture, not too much factories or wide roads with crazy traffic. It a really nice region for travellers by bike. The best way to understand that is to come, to cycle and to see it yourself. According to the goals of the project &bdquo;ViSoEst by Bike“ a new bicycle route has been developed (route map <a href="http://www.vidzeme.com/eng.php">http://www.vidzeme.com/eng.php</a> ). The route named as Tour de LatEst has the length of 1296 km in total, half in Estonia, half in Latvia. The opening event of the new route will be on July 11th – 24th, 2010. The Marathon will start on July 11th in Sigulda, easily accessible by train from Riga. The first 2,5 days the participants will cycle in Latvia (Sigulda – Ligatne – Cesis – Smiltene – Valka), then accross the border in Valga and cycle for 7 next days in Estonia (Valga-Viljandi-Elva-Elistvere-Alatskivi-Tartu-Otepää-Karula NP), last 5 days will be again in Latvia (Ape-Aluksne – Gulbene – Cesvaine – Madona – Ergli - Sigulda).
