July 17 - 19, 2014 [Stuttgart, Germany]

A group of 50 cyclists started from Stuttgart to Berlin for a “Pacemaker” tour. Mayor Wölfle of Stuttgart cycled with them to the boundary of the city. They stopped in other member cities of Mayors for Peace on their way. They collected signatures under an open letter to the German chancellor Angela Merkel, criticizing the modernization of nuclear weapons and demanding a meeting with a delegation of Mayors for Peace. The letter was drafted by the Mayor of Mutlangen and the Governor of the Ostalbkreis.
