I’d say my most memorable ride was going 30+ miles in one day on the greenways through Connecticut. I almost made it to Rhode Island! On this particular journey, I stopped at a bench to hydrate and take a rest and met a gentleman riding a road bike on the same path. He was originally from Alaska but was riding across the entire country from state to state. We chatted awhile about my Nomad and he even took it for a ride! Just riding this bike around town gets so many people talking to me about what it is, where I got it, and how they can get one too.

My life has absolutely changed in a positive way since owning an e-bike. True story, I crashed my e-scooter and ended up in the hospital. A car had cut me off, sent me flying, and I landed directly on my face. Though I was wearing a helmet, I did end up splitting my lip in two and requiring many stitches. If I had been riding an e-bike like my Nomad, I would have been able to stop in time and never have that accident.

Lastly, I’ve learned a number of things since owning my own e-bike:
1. Exercise is much easier when you’ve got a motor to help you up the inclines
2. Having a well-built and affordable e-bike is possible with Velotric
3. I freaking love having a way to get out on the trails, clear my head from my work week, and have a blast cruising along any terrain I choose
