#1 A world tour like no other one with

His name is Thomas, but most people know him better under his youtuber name : Monsieur Flex, aka the man who crossed the world on an electric wheel. 

If you know him and have been following him for a long time, you know that Monsieur Flex was first known thanks to his Tour de France in a monowheel. Despite an incredible adventure, it seems that France was not quite up to Monsieur Flex's ambition. On August 4, 2019, Thomas decided to tackle the world tour. 

On the agenda : Europe, Tokyo, Moscow, Beijing, Los Angeles, and Vancouver ! 

But you are surely wondering with which electric wheel will he be able to do so many kilometers, right ? 

Well, it's none other than the Kingsong S18XL, an electric wheel that he describes as enduring. And I guess he was right!

#2 Norway - France with an electric scooter 😱

We are not yet on a world tour, but still, it seems that the electric scooter has nothing to envy to the wheel!

It was on a certain Tuesday, May 25th that Hervé Magnin started a journey by linking Le Bourget-du-Lac, in France, to the North of Norway. And it was nothing less than a world first, ladies and gentlemen!

His goal is not only to surpass himself humanly, no, Hervé Magnin is first and foremost a writer and filmmaker. So the objective of his trip was above all to promote electric mobility through his film and his book.

To achieve his trip, Hervé Magnin relied on an electric scooter of the brand E-Twow, with some tinkering. In fact, he bought an extra battery, which allowed him to go beyond his 30 kilometers of autonomy. 

#3 More than 800 kilometers on a monowheel, from Normandy to Brittany

Still in the field of travel and discovery, Céline and Aurélien decided to discover Brittany in an electric wheel! Well yes, in France too there are (very) beautiful landscapes 🇨🇵.

Even if they had already visited Brittany, their wish was to discover it differently. For example, they wanted to use the bike paths and the little frequented roads.

Let's go! Céline and Aurélien set off on August 11, 2019 for 10 days of travel on an electric wheel. 

#4 Montpellier - Clermont Ferrand by monowheel AND electric scooter!

We finally found the story that will not make us choose between the wheel and the electric scooter!

Well, we could have told you about it on several lines, but I think the video speaks for itself... and it's worth the detour!

Thanks to you, wheelers and enthusiasts, for making us travel and dream so much.

#5 A belgian lands on the highway on a scooter

This story made the media, and incredible but true, it really exists !

It's in the Jura region that the gendarmes intercepted the poor young man who followed his GPS and forgot to activate the mention "avoid highways"...

We can say that this man will remember his first passage in France !

45 kilometers of highways just for you

Who hasn't dreamed of riding on ultra smooth and new highways ?

On the occasion of the inauguration of the great western bypass of Strasbourg, Vinci Autoroute decided to open its 45 kilometers to rollerblades, cyclists and electric mobility machines, in order to let them discover this piece of freeway!

The wheelers of Alsace have already decided to meet here. It was on November 14, 2021.

Now, we just have to cross our fingers that his event will be repeated elsewhere in France and in the world!
