Description: Quiero el paseo mi bicicleta - I want to ride my bicycle: The group of cyclists came from all over the U.S., spanning Washington to Florida and California to Maine. They covered about 700 kilometers on bicycle and the back of a truck with stops in cities and towns of central Cuba. As they travelled, they stayed and visited with the local Cuban population and distributed humanitarian donations.
South Country Fair: The Anarcoustic Accordion Player Goes to the Fair: Every July the town of Fort Macleod Alberta hosts the South Country Fair, a weekend of music, camping and other festival traditions. This year it was visited by a group of 'anarchists' from Vancouver and beyond. Lead by a 'gun runner' and an accordion player, they arrived ready to entertain, frighten and engage the audience.
