About
Founded in 2010, The Sun Trip is a ngo headquartered in Le Bourget du Lac, France specializing in Solar, Other.
Founded in 2010, The Sun Trip organizes international rallye-raids featuring solar-powered electric bicycles. The flagship event involves dozens of adventurers traveling thousands of kilometers across continents—from France to Japan (2010), France to Kazakhstan (2013), Milan to Antalya (2015-2016), Lyon to Guangzhou (2018), and more recently across China and Morocco. The organization promotes renewable energy, sustainable mobility, and human connection through cycling. Events emphasize non-assistance principles, route freedom, and challenges including the 'Solar Challenge' for fastest solar-charged completions. Regional editions in France (Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, Corsica, Pyrenees) offer shorter, more accessible experiences. The Sun Trip combines technical innovation in e-bike design with communication excellence, attracting participants aged 4-72, including people with disabilities.
