A new bike has been produced, the eBike! The bike is mostly to be used in flat terrain environments, but can be used off terrains such as this. The eBike runs on a 250 watt brush-less wheel hub motor built into the back wheel of the bicycle powered by a BionX lithium-battery allowing the bicycle to reach speeds up to 62 mph.

The eBike is due for release by midyear of 2012 and is approximately priced at about $3,800.
A bit pricey for this new release, but it would most likely be well worth the full price. 


*The eBike is due to release soon.

A scooter prototype has been revealed: The Tilting 3-wheeled e-scooter. Run by a 60V, 20-Ah lithium battery, the new scooter can travel up to 10+ miles without the need to recharge. There is also a model, the 60-Ah, which allows the scooter to go 30+ miles. This model, obviously, would be more expensive. With speeds up to 40mph and weighing 230lbs, this scooter is one of the finest currently that companies have to offer for purchase. From turn signals to lighting inside the scooter, it is all powered through LED lights, "a more efficient way," the company says.

*All features are subject to change however, since the product is a prototype, and is still in the works of production to finalize the product. 

Spring Break 12'

From sleeping in late, to hanging with friends almost everyday, my spring break was very enjoyable. Starting on that Saturday through the Monday of the next week, my friends and I went to many places, 
from eating out for dinner, the mall, as well as the movies. I did not go on a vacation, and neither did any of my friends. Most of my friends, however, could not hang out until the weekend, because their spring break started this week, but mine started the week before theirs.

On Monday, the final day of break, I remembered that I had two or so projects to do; they were due this week! The entire day was basically a day of doing homework / projects that I left for the last day of break. Overall, the break was enjoyable but, I wish we would have had our time off the same week that the rest of my friends that go to BCTH and the Academies do.
