Which Gazelle Model do you have?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gazelle Medeo T10+ HMB<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How long have you had your Gazelle?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

10 months<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How has owning a Gazelle changed the way you live?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have worked at the University of California Santa Cruz for 21 years and drove by car each way for the entire time. When I test rode a Gazelle bike through a campus event, I immediately fell in love and dropped my parking permit immediately after I bought my own Gazelle. My commute to work now allows me to listen to a podcast or music, take the opportunity to reflect on my day, check out all the incredible nature on my way to campus and just puts me in a better mood when I get to work everyday. It is one of the best things I have ever done for myself!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are your thoughts about the role of cycling and ebikes in a more sustainable future?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are KEY! They are the answer. I feel very fortunate that I was able to afford one, I know for many folks they might be cost prohibitive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How long have you been riding and is this your first ebike?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have ridden bikes my entire life and I still have a non-electric hard tail mountain bike but I had never commuted by bike before. My commute is a fairly long and steady uphill from my house so the ebike just makes it so much easier! This ebike was my first one!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How do you use your Gazelle–for commuting, errands, fitness, fun–or all of the above? Tell us how you enjoy the ride.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I use by Gazelle for commuting mainly, but I also use it for errands and fun – getting to and from our local brew pubs or a quick jaunt downtown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you ever met up to ride with other Gazelle owners?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes but only on campus rides at UCSC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What has been your greatest or most memorable adventure with your Gazelle?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Biking to UC Santa Cruz is like biking in a nature preserve. I think stopping and listening to coyotes call in a meadow along the bike path on campus was a highlight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anything else you would like to share about your Gazelle or your experience with it?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I think I may be your biggest fan! I have told dozens and dozens of people about my ebike and how much I love Gazelle. Not only are your bikes great as far as performance but they are just really cool looking too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
