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. :D Anyway, congrats Chris!

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.
