On July 19th at 10am, the 2018 Suntrip solar ebike race officially started out of Chamonix, France. This was the last time many of the trip participants would get to see each other so we (Justin and AnSo) tried to catch up with everyone to get a glimpse of them riding on film before we all split up.
Here's how that turned out! We didn't quite see everyone (like race leader Raf or the Morrocan duo Youssef and Mohamad) but caught up with enough to give a good idea on the diversity of riders and vehicles.
The weather as you can see was just fantastic for a solar bike making for a great start to the race.
Some interesting data analysis from this first day has been shared here:
