Title: 2017 Drive Electric Week September 9-17
Post by: ctrlburn on June 26, 2017, 12:21:48 AM
I'm starting the thread early this year so I can focus on other things later*.

Watch this site for events near you and join in to raise awareness.

Presented by: Plug In America, Sierra Club, Electric Auto Association, Nissan Leaf and Clipper Creek.


We already have 5 Zero Motorcycles Registered!

I'm the one in Madison WI.




*Aug/Sept I'm going to Namibia to visit my daughter who is teaching in the Peace Corps, so I'll count on others to keep this thread alive.

So now in Denver there's a Tesla X, a BMW i3, and my Zero FX.

I always go to 2 or 3 Drive Electric Week events.  That's cool that it is tracking vehicles!

My guess is because the Event you registered for has a date of "TBD" so any logic of searching in year 2017 won't find it.
I guessed around a little and haven't found the constant for "TBD" in that link so I'll wager you'll show once the date is set.


In 2016 I found this link can be edited:
https://driveelectricweek.org/event-vehicle.php?year=2017&pevid=20

Where year=year and pevid=

20=Zero
21=Brammo
27=Vectrix
55=Lightening
57=Flux Moped


So anyone curious (and not obsessive enough to click through every event and tally them) can watch electric motorcycles eclipse last year.
