In the course of preparation for my big "salade oil project" I participated in the diesel class of the mountain race in Gaschney France

and a short description of my Project:
As I'm going as speaker to the „2009 International Conference on the Integration of Sustainable Agriculture and Rural Development in the Context of Climate Change, the Energy Crisis and Food Insecurity“ in Agadir (http://2009-international-conference.synthasite.com/) I decided to go there in a sustainable way. My diesel motorbike passed the first tests running longer journeys and I began the conversion to vegetable oil. unfortunately some spare parts and a bit of know how is still lacking. So I developed the folloing project:
Traveling to the conference using vegetable oil (via Genua - ferry to Tanger) and visiting and promoting as many Renewable Energy Projects as possible on my way. The CO2 savings and the example of practiced environmental protection plus the fun of driving are worth the efforts anyway The latest news are published in my blog on:

Re: Moutain Race in Gaschney France
Its been a longer pause since the last entry, but not because there was nothing to tell but because I have been to occupied to write my blog. But good news with greenBull I found a qualified band dedicated partner who guarantees the vegetal oil conversion. And the enterprises Louis and Immler tyres too give a helpful contribution to the success of the whole project. . What else is new? I put the bike on a crane to weld and fortify the foodrests. Last Sunday I've been at the Golden Oldies festival at Wettenberg and I found a lot of music and vehicles of the „good old times“ and interesting conversations. Next weekend I'm going to the Schottenring Grand Prix for historic motorcycles, a great event to see.
See you
