Adventures on a 2014 Zero SR
« on: March 05, 2015, 08:03:19 AM »

Been waiting for this for a long time...

Looking forward to spring weather, or at least some temps above 32F so I can ride!

(Actual adventures coming soon...)

Nice SR!

And since when did temps below 32F stop you from riding?!

I second that, I ride below 32 all the time ... If there is no ice on the ground I can't dodge then I am riding.

0F was coldest this year so far, got into work with 55F battery pack temp and controller temp and motor temp ;)

Good point, protomech!  I recall posting about a 6 or 8 degree ride last year.  Will be posting more later as I outfit it with a power tank and chargers for another journey of several thousand miles this summer.  There's a good chance I'll go Maine to FL or Canada to Mexico if I can swing it.

Congrats Ben! This is great! Can't wait to see the new adventures!

Don't just swing it, Benswing it! ;)
