Ever since I was a kid, two wheels have been my escape, my adventure, and my freedom. Like many, I grew up riding my bicycle every day—not just for the ride, but for the thrill of exploration, the scraped knees, and the satisfaction of conquering my neighborhood one pedal at a time.

I’ve always been a DIY kind of guy, learning how to fix things as they broke. So when pedal-assist and moped-style eBikes came along, I was skeptical at first. Wasn’t the whole point of riding to push through on your own? But the moment I hopped on an electric bike, that feeling of pure exhilaration hit me all over again. The speed, the torque, the freedom to go farther and faster without losing the essence of cycling—it was a game-changer.

Growing up in the city, dirt bikes were never really an option—too loud, too big, and nowhere to ride them. But E-Motos changed that. They gave people like me a second chance to feel the wind in our hair and experience the off-road thrill we never had access to. That passion led me to GritShift, where I could merge my background in eCommerce, shipping, and warehousing with something I actually enjoy.

Now, E-Motos aren’t just a passion; they’re part of my lifestyle. Whether I’m commuting, off-roading, or just carving through the streets, I love the way electric bikes blend technology and tradition. They’ve redefined what’s possible on two wheels, and I’m all in. From a kid pedaling through the city to an enthusiast embracing the power of electric rides, my journey has come full circle. And the best part? The ride is far from over.

PS, Super 73 is my personal favorite bike!
