The Solar UMPC tour has started!

Posted on 25 August 2007, Last updated on 02 December 2024 by

I’m writing this on my Samsung Q1b inside a tent in a campsite near a town called Sonderheim in Germany! The 9 day solar tour has started!

It was a really hot day today and very hard work getting the bike and equipment down here on the train but I guess that’s nothing compared to the 400km I’ve got ahead of me.

I’ve heard that the sun will continue for the next 2 days at least meaning I can get some good testing in with the solar ultra mobile PC equipment and hopefully load-up the batteries to take me through a cloudy day or two if the weather changes.

I will continue to update news here over the next 9 days along with keeping the blog and map updated with the track and images.

Update: All of the solar tour posts are available here in reverse chronological order.
