About this project
France & Bruno took part in Sun Trip Alpes 2023, Sun Trip Alpes 2022 and Corsica Sun Trip, the long-distance adventure on solar-powered bikes held since 2013.
The machine is a solar trike.
France and Bruno rode their first Sun Trip in Corsica in 2020. In 2021 they linked several Sun Trips and then toured France as a duo, via the Spanish Pyrenees – about 8,500 km and 80,000 m of climbing in five and a half months. In 2022 they rode the Sun Trip Alpes with “Team Zero”, driven by friendship, open hearts and an almost zero carbon footprint.
