Welcome to 2023! We love a fresh start and are resolving to live a little greener in the year ahead. If you are, too, may we suggest riding more and driving less? E-bikes are a great alternative to cars because they produce zero emissions, are quiet, and can help reduce traffic congestion and parking problems. Plus, they're fun to ride!

We've rounded up the coolest ways to enjoy sticking closer to home (AKA Microadventures) and fully embrace enjoying the journey, not just the destination. Bonus points for cutting back on traffic time, parking hassles, and carbon emissions!
