Ebikes! Keep on riding!!!

Do you dream of the wind in your hair (or what is left of it) as the miles sail by? Do you reminisce about the fun bike riding filled days of your youth? Maybe you have always harbored a secret dream to ride a trail for miles while enjoying the beautiful country side. If this is you, this episode is spot on! We interview Rhonda and Tom from Tennessee as they tour on their ebikes. The ebike world has changed retirement for many bikers. Owning and riding an ebike is a fast new trend in the United States that is making riding a bike a fun and pleasurable hobby for many of us who dreaded head winds and hills in the past. I bet after this show you will be investigating ebike sites and may even be on a waiting list to own your own! Don't forget your helmet!
