Power up Hills With Ease, Breeze Through Headwinds, Track Through Snow or Gravel and Commute to Work Without Breaking a Sweat on Electric Bikes IRVINE, Calif., March 8, 2016 — Boise’s new Pedego® Electric Bikes store is now open, giving bicycle-loving Boise residents and visitors a choice of nine electric bike models that will have them powering up hills with ease, breezing through headwinds, tracking through snow and gravel and commuting to work without breaking a sweat. Available for sale, rentals and group tours, electric bikes allow riders to explore and enjoy Boise’s many scenic bike paths and trails. Owners Dan and Nicole West invite the public to celebrate the Grand Opening of Pedego Boise at a celebration on Saturday, March 12 from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  Free test rides are available during the celebration as well as anytime during store hours.   Dan and Nicole were inspired to open the Pedego Boise electronic bike store because they love the outdoors and the bike-friendly community of Boise.  Nicole said, “We were hooked from the first time we rode the Trail Tracker bikes.” Dan said, “Riding Pedego electric bikes is a fun way to get out, get some exercise and enjoy all of the beautiful trails and sights here in Boise.” Pedego Electric Bikes CEO Don DiCostanzo is happy to welcome Dan and Nicole to the Pedego family. “Boise is known for its scenic cycling paths, and we’re delighted that Pedego Boise has been embraced by the community.” Pedego Boise is conveniently located in the heart of the Treasure Valley across the street from the Boise Greenbelt, which follows the gorgeous Boise River.  From the store, riders can enjoy many bike paths, including the paths in Barber Park, Marion Williams Park, Julia Davis Park, and Ann Morrison Park.
