About this project
Silvia & Christophe took part in Sun Trip Tour 2019, the long-distance adventure on solar-powered bikes held since 2013.
The machine is a solar bike.
Silvia and Christophe met at the start of the 2018 Sun Trip. Christophe, an e-bike expert for many years, joined The Sun Trip in 2017 through the association Vecolo to help with technical assistance and organised the friends’ loop in 2018. In 2019 the couple rode the Sun Trip Tour and the Corsica Sun Trip together, and they have since joined the organising team.
