Tour de Satoshi bitcoin anniversary bike tour from Florence to Frankfurt

On January 3rd of 2019 which marks the 10th anniversary of Bitcoin (Genesis Block), Vitus Zeller started a 10 day bike tour from Florence to Frankfurt. The tour started in Florence, the birthplace of modern banking, in front of the Palazzo Medici Riccardi and ended in Frankfurt a. M. in front of the European Central Bank.

It was a 1000 km bike ride with 10,000 meters of altitude with luggage in 10 days in unpredictable cold weather conditions through the Alps. Besides the sportive challenge Vitus' goal was to pay every night’s stay in a hotel with bitcoin. Upon arrival in each destination town, Vitus therefore needed to go from hotel to hotel and try to convince a hotel owner to let him stay a night in return for bitcoin. The final result out of nine nights was: Bitcoin 7:2 Euro.

Prior to starting Vitus published a one pager about Tour de Satoshi and announced it at a bitcoin meetup in Munich.

Vitus summarized every single day in his blog on medium as well as produced a short video about Tour de Satoshi.

Here's the single stages: Florence - Vergato Vergato - Cremona Cremona - Lecco Lecco - St. Moritz St. Moritz - Chur Chur - Bregenz Bregenz - Riedlingen Riedlingen - Stuttgart Stuttgart - Heidelberg Heidelberg - Frankfurt
