Does the name Chirs Karol sound familiar?  There were posts floating around here earlier this year about him offering test rides.  I think his business was called Shredables at the time.  Did not realize his history.    Anyway, congrats Chris! 

SYOSSET, N.Y., Nov 06, 2008 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- From Snowboarding Pioneer to Eco-Conscious Entrepreneur, Former World Champion Snowboarder Chris Karol Offers Electric Motorcycles to the Masses

"I have a long history in the action sports industry and I have worked with many cutting edged products throughout the years, but I have yet to be as excited as I am now about the electric motorcycles we are bringing into the U.S.," said Chris Karol, CEO of Shredelectric.

I met him at a motorcycle show in Boston and went up to check out his shop in Vermont a week later. 

He is a really nice guy and very excited about electric vehicles.  His shop is in a really beautiful part of Vermont with plenty of riding around.

Good to hear.  Should be good for Quantya and the electrics in general.

The biggest problem with having a shop in VT is also a huge asset.  Its takes a long time to get there.

Because of this, its not overrun with people and is still beautiful but its a drive.  A worthwhile drive, but a drive.
