About this project
Adalberto Cravero (Italy) took part in The Sun Trip 2015, the long-distance adventure on solar-powered bikes held since 2013.
The machine is a solar trike.
Adalberto Cravero, who lives between Turin and Milan, first planned to ride his own prototype “Red Arrow”. After many tests he bought a new trike and adapted it, with a very light trailer built from an aluminium ladder. He was the oldest rider of the 2015 edition and the oldest adventurer in Sun Trip history – someone who had already crossed the Alps on horseback and spent his retirement inventing streamlined solar bike prototypes.
