Who am i?

Daniele Carletti

Avid outdoor lover: from mountaineering to surfing, from climbing to cycling. I am driven by the strong desire to explore my abilities, distant countries and peoples. I love travelling.

Engineer by education, globetrotter by vocation. Moved by curiosity and obsessed with the pursuit of perfection, if I’m not pedalling, you’ll find me building or fixing something. I love to set up my mobile workshop wherever I am, hanging my bike from a tree branch in a public park, or turning it upside down in a hotel room.

BeCycling is the container of my projects: promotion of sustainable mobility, publication of articles related to travel on two wheels, and guided bike tours to educate and encourage people to travel slowly and consciously. I would like to make you travel and inspire you, but above all I want to make you the protagonist of the changes our planet needs to keep on striving.

In a section of the Brahmana, in the old Indian sacred scriptures, the God Indra encourages the young Rohita to embrace a life of travel:

There is no happiness for him who does not travel, Rohita!
Living in the society of men, even the best man becomes sinful. Travel!
The feet of the wanderer are like flowers, his soul grows and yields fruit, and his sins are washed away by the toil of traveling.
The fortune of him who sits, sits; it sleeps when he sleeps; it moves when he moves.
Therefore, wander Rohita!
