Replacing your car with a bicycle might not sound possible, but would you change your mind if it was an electric bike?
Today, we hear about a bill that could make E-Bikes more affordable and accessible in our state. State Senator WIll Haskell joins us to talk about the proposal, part of legislation to create a greener, more energy efficient Connecticut.
And later, we hear why cyclists love these battery powered bicycles.
We talk to a local electric bike shop here in Connecticut and learn about Spark Cycleworks efforts to make e-bikes accessible to everybody.
Do you have a question about e-bikes in our state?
