There are plans for a similar pedal-powered ride sometime in the future. Presumably you'll want to take part Green Toffoui...???

I was looking at the route these chappies are taking and it seems to me they are going through Gochina. Now is that wise?

The coast road to Pyrgo goes up in to the hills by-passing Kochina, bit of a winding detour, but a picturesque road through woodland.

For turkish-speakers, there was this in the Kibris Gazette about the ride...

Marios Andreou adlı motosiklet tutkunu Kıbrıslı bir Rum, 26 – 27 Mayıs tarihlerinde “iki toplumlu Kıbrıs turu” organize ediyor.
Andreou, “The Great Bikers Ride Around Cyprus - United Bikers for A United Cyprus” adıyla açtığı facebook sayfasında, Kıbrıslı Türk motosiklet tutkunlarına da tura katılma çağrısı yapıyor.
Andreou, İngilizce, Rumca ve Türkçe olarak yayınladığı çağrı mektubuna, “Ben sadece sizin gibi bir motosiklet tutkunuyum. Motosikletimi ve daha önemlisi ülkemi çok seviyorum. Bundan dolayıdır ki ben ve birkaç motosiklet sever arkadaşım ortak bir fikir ortaya atarak, Kıbrıs adasının bütününü kapsayan bir motosiklet turu organize etmeye karar verdik” diye başladı.
Organizasyonu yapmaktaki amaçlarını, “motosiklet tutkunlarının yaşam tarzını göstermek ve ayni anda Kıbrıs’ta yaşayan herkese de güçlü bir mesaj vermek” olarak niteleyen Andreou, “Bunun için Kıbrıs’ın tarihinde bir ilki gerçekleştirme düşüncesiyle yola çıktık. Motosiklet tutkunları olarak çok sevdiğimiz bir organizasyonu gerçekleştirirken herkese bir mesaj vermeye çalışacağız. Kıbrıs’ın tarihinde ilk defa iki toplumlu birleşik motosiklet tutkunları, birleşik bir Kıbrıs için, Kıbrıs’ın tümünü kapsayan resmi bir motosiklet turu organize ediyor” diye devam etti.
Andreou’nun mesajı şöyle devam etti:
“Amacımız mayıs ayı sonunda geleneksel olarak her yıl düzenleyeceğimiz iki günlük bir motosiklet turu organize etmektir. Bu organizasyon Kıbrıs’ın hem Güneyinden hem de Kuzeyinden motosikletçiler tarafından organize edilecek ve iki günlük bir programı kapsayacaktır. Cumartesi günü Larnaka sahil yolundan başlayıp, Limasol ve Baf sahil güzergahını takip edeceğiz. Poli istikametinden devam edip Pomos köyünde bir günlük turumuzu tamamlayacağız. Gece Pomos köyünde “Paradise Place” yanında bulunan geniş araziye motosikletlerimiz park edilecek ve buraya çadırlar kurulacaktır. Arzu edenler için otelde konaklama imkanı sağlanacaktır. Burada da akşam yemeği yenecek, canlı Rock müzik eşliğinde organizasyonun kutlanması yapılacaktır. Geceyi burada geçirdikten sonra Pazar sabahı, motosikletliler yola çıkıp, Yeşilırmak kapısından Kuzeye geçecekler, Güzelyurt, Girne, Kantara istikametini takip ederek Mağusa’ya ulaşacaklar, oradan da İki Buçuk Mil kapısını kullanarak İngiliz Üslerinden geçerek Larnaka’ya ulaşıp Kıbrıs turunu tamamlayacaklar. Takip edilecek bütün güzergah takriben 500 kilometrelik bir mesafeyi kapsayacak.”
