Intro to E-Bikes

Tired of $6-a-gallon gas? Are you curious about making your transportation trips easier? Want to learn more about how eBikes can help conquer your commute, saving you both time and money?

Maybe you've thought about biking to work, but you're concerned about hills, distance, or the extra time it will take you. Perhaps you'd love to ride, but you are a busy parent with kids to transport and errands to run.

From hauling kids, to arriving to work sweat-free, this workshop will explore eBike options for a diversity of lifestyles and budgets.

Ecology Action staff will provide an overview introduction of eBikes. Topics will include frequently asked questions, different eBike technologies, cost, environmental benefits, and investigate if eBikes can really replace cars.

We'll also dive into the question on everyone's mind: "Are eBikes cheating?" Spoiler alert: they're not. Additionally, we'll cover all of the GO SC benefits available to you, including zero interest eBike financing, eBike rebates, free two-week eBike test rides, free transit passes, and much more!
