Given the right place and the right weather, it makes sense to find modes of transportation that are quiet and environmentally friendly. In this case, my good friend BZ and I made a foray to a local grocery store to buy a few essentials on our Lectric e-bikes. BZ’s basket holds hamburger and 2 Starbucks lattes. My basket, among other things, cradles two bottles of tequila. I know what you might be thinking: “Tequila is an essential?” Youbetcha.

We can go 50 miles between a charge on these bikes, and I am grateful for good bike paths. Plus, you do get exercise depending on what modes of pedal assist you use. It’s certainly fun to ride the wave of electric mobility.
