Title: Looking for volunteers for a roundtable podcast of Zero owners
Post by: jazclrint on November 26, 2013, 07:58:11 AM
Hello all,
I have done round tables of elmoto owners before.  I just tried to do one of Empulse owners and got one to show up.  I am hoping to to get a decent group.  I do the round-table on Skype but I do have a phone number you can call.  Does December 8th at 8pm eastern work for those of you willing?  I am hoping for 5-6 people.  But with my past experience I will be very appreciative of those willing to be alternates in the case of no shows.  I am looking for owners of any 2013 Zero models.  A variety would be cool.  Plan on about an hour and a half, if you have that much time.

Thank you,
Richard Dort

" I am looking for owners of any 2013 Zero models."

That rules me out then. Though I did ride a 2013 DS for a month while my ZF9 was being receiving a fix for the Glitch.

I would be interested but my time is pretty limited for now with my 3½ months baby.

I seem to have time for this. My Skype info is attached to my username at gmail.

Sounds like fun. I could talk about electric motorcycles all day. Count me in.

Sorry, I've interviewed 2012 owners already, which is why I'm lokking for 2013 owners.  I am letting Ben join so if you'd be willing to be an alternate that would be awesome.

Well if by some miracle this magical thing called "spare time" co-insides with the meet up time feel free to join.  Congrats on the new family member btw.

BrianTRice and DesignerDan: Sweet and sweet!  Talk to you guys then.  I could stand to have a few more people want to join if a few of you need some more prompting.

Saaweeet!  Thank you windrider for keepign things on track.

Sorry for my late reply.  I got myself the flu bad for the first time in years.  Knocked my on my keester.

I am jazclrint on skype.  That is free and the easiest.  But if all else fails call me at 931-326-3151.

Thank you all, and I look forward to chatting with everyone.

Sorry, to clarify a bit.  At 8pm/5pm est/pst simply call me on skype either via my skype name (preferable) or via the phone number and I will add you to the group call.  It will take a minute to get everyone on and going so feel free to message me if you are having issues.  I cannot, however receive texts.

I will get everyone's names, and then get started by having everyone introduce themselves (no need to reveal more than you want to).  It's pretty simple, I'll start asking questions and do my best ask people directly and try to keep everyone involved.

10 minutes to go, and please no video.  I can't afford group video.  Skype charges for that, and we need to save the band width.

Good talking with you today.  It's fun talking with other electric motorcycle owners!  Also, let me know if you'd like the inside scoop on the Ride the Future Tour this summer.  Plenty of EV adventures to share from that trip!

Yes, that went really well!  Sorry I ended it so badly.  We had a great cross section of people and locations.  I really think we hit all the important stuff too.  Thank you everyone for their time!  It'll be a few weeks before the podcast is out.  I'll let you all know.

Of course, as the evening rolls by, the conversation replays in my head and I realize that the visual in my mind and the words I said that really mattered didn't match: I meant to say $.018/mi (but this is actually the most recent average for the 2013 with my husband and I going all-in in subsidized green energy). It was closer to "almost" a penny a mile for the 2012 ~ which I had ridden mainly in Eco mode for the 4K+ miles I put on it from June 2012 - April 2013 :)  (I'd been riding my 2013 a little more aggressively of late.) :)

Cheers!

Hi,

sorry but I wasn't able to participate. My wife went to the shower so I had to take care of my boy ;) I'm sad that I was not able to be there, maybe another time.

Seeing as we are all too geographically widespread for a face to face EMF meetup.  Maybe we should have a Skype meetup sometime?  Im hoping to have a fast internet connection in the next few months so would be able to host quite a few participants.
