Towards a third title?

Raf Van Hulle is the face of the first three editions of the Sun Trip:

winner in 2013, 2nd in 2015, winner in 2018!

His sense of race, his performance, his meticulousness and his perfect mechanics have made him a success.

Before the postponement of the 2020 edition, he had announced his participation “without any intention of winning”, but the new route planned for 2021, starting in Belgium, has motivated him to revise his ambitions upwards. Faced with the numerous velomobiles present this year on the Sun Trip, will Raf be able to win a third title?

Raf Van Hulle will be wearing the colours of the Belgian company John Cockerill this year. Since 1817 the group develops large-scale
