I remember Visby! Great little island!

Why a kickbike? Isn't it tiring to stand like that all the time? And aren't the uphills frustrating?

About Gotland.
Beautiful and frendly place! No hills and always sunny. Perfect place for moving with tires. http://www.destinationgotland.se/dg/eng/Default.asp

Nice photos! Interesting idea.

I think Sweden is probably up among the best countries to wild camp in. You are basically allowed to camp anywhere you like if you stay away from peoples houses and provided you don't stay at the same place for more than a few nights or so.

Gotland is also a magnificient place to go biking. It's very flat and there are few cars.
