At the origin of this idea: a prologue planned from Frankfurt before the Lyon-Canton 2020. Following the report to 2021 of this event, we wanted to maintain the concept of a prologue coming from the northern part of France and we chose Strasbourg.
The prologue group will arrived in Lyon the morning of the departure of Sun Trip France and will be associated with the festivities.
Registration
The idea of the prologue is to open the Sun Trip concept to a wider audience, by proposing a more accessible trip (of the order of 100 km per day), with a recommended itinerary and a meeting planned every evening.
A group will be made up of around twenty participants, with the particularity of opening up for the first time to users of electric bikes, without on-board solar. For these electric bikes, as for solar bikes, the organization will offer a solar charging station for lunch and dinner, thanks to an agreement with the French company ECOSUN Expert. Another novelty!
The registration fees are:
– 280 euros for the total route.
– 140 euros for participation over two or three stages.
The services included in this registration are: The official Sun Trip France jersey, 6 nights camping, breakfast base, logistics team with a tracking vehicle, mobile solar charging solution, cocktail with Sun Trip France participants in Lyon on July 14.
