Biking Around the World for Renewable Energy
My name is Mike Dits and this website is a travel blog of my adventure by bicycle around the world in research of renewable energy. For four years, from 2015 to 2019, I cycled 77,000 kilometers through 63 countries in five continents as I met the world and learned about what people are doing to power their lives in a clean, sustainable manner. Take a look at my route around the world and follow me on my journey!
