Electric Bikes: Climate-friendly Transportation

E-bikes have become a familiar sight around Minnesota, but that hasn't stopped people from flocking to the e-bike exhibit year after year. This year, the Civilized Cycles Semi-Trike is making its debut. Think of it as a tiny moving truck on two wheels: up to 200 cubic feet of enclosed cargo space and an 800-lb payload capacity. Also on display will be the Van Raam Fun2Go e-trike, a side-by-side trike. The Minnesota Cargo Bike Library, currently up and running in Minneapolis with a Rochester expansion coming soon, will show off one of the bikes that members can borrow for free for up to five days. With more bike types and uses on display than ever before, this year's exhibit offers opportunities for curious newcomers and longtime e-bike fans alike.
