Baltic Sea Cycling approach
The BSC project stresses the importance of practising cycling. At most workshops a cycle trip in the host city was integrated into the trip to illustrate the strengths and weaknesses of the local cycling infrastructure.
Additional study trips led to Münster and Groningen, the most advanced bicycle cities in Germany and the Netherlands. On a two-hour cycle-trip many good solutions were presented. A presentation showed the background of the development. The participants had the time to discuss the examples seen and to feel the atmosphere of the bicycle friendly places.
The ADFC Rostock organized a day trip to Kiel. The small group was guided by a local activist and was able to meet the coordinator for cycling from the municipality. Two groups from the Rostock municipality followed this example later on.
