The Salento bike café: a different way of conceiving cycle tourism. From the South Cultural Routes trip

Puglia is one of the best places to do cycle tourism. This happens both due to the atmospheric conditions and the orographic conformation of the territory. In the Gallipoli area there is a network favorable to cycle tourism, rich in both tracks and monuments to visit. And there is the Salento Bike Cafè, created to host cycle tourists but also as a cultural container. Along the South Cultural Routes, traveling with my Vostok100k, I also come across these stories. And it also happens that,  Carlo Cascione explains to us, an area ready to host cycle tourism, and therefore people who are attentive to the environment, can only improve the lives of those who live there all year round. “South! Vostok100k along the South Cultural Routes” was a journey traveled aboard the Vostok100k, the old 1982 camper of Lorenzo Scaraggi, journalist, reporter. Lorenzo Scaraggi crossed Puglia, Molise, Campania, Basilicata and Calabria in search of anthropological, ethnographic, historical stories, traditions and all those intangible cultural assets of which the south is rich. South Cultural Routes is an excellent project of MIBACT in collaboration with the Puglia Region, Molise Region, Basilicata Region, Calabria Region and Campania Region.
