The Atlanta Be Ready Workshop is designed to prepare our senior population with the tools and techniques they will need to help themselves during a disaster or emergency. There will be representatives from both the City of Atlanta and Fulton County in their various capacities to assist our neighbors in creating a plan that will help them be safe until things return to normalcy.   Although we are focusing on seniors, we welcome those who are not but are willing to help their neighbors navigate during an emergency or disaster.

Be Advised - Be Informed - Be Prepared - Be Ready

Electric Tricycle for stabilization when Navigating around potholes

I got this information from a website that sells electric tricycle.

It seems a little slow for me but, I think it is ideal for running errands, light shopping and provides independence to senior and juniors without breaking the bank. I also like it because it seems to provide stability on bike lanes on Atlanta street that are plagued with pot-holes and metal plates.

Here's the details on the vehicle and promotional information:

Electric Tricycle is perfect for riding to and from work. It has 3 wheels, so it's weight limit is 300 lbs (can carry a person that weighs up to 300 lbs). The 3 wheels are perfect for riders who are not good at balancing. It moves as fast as 15 mph and has a 30 miles of battery power per charge. So, for every 1 charge, you can ride the tricycle for up to 30 miles. The battery is a lithium-ion 36V 10aH one, NOT lead-acid. Lithium-ion batteries are lighter, carry more power, have a higher range, and is more expensive. The Cabbike 3 Electric Tricycle frame is made out of 100% STEEL for extreme sturdiness and is very high quality. The electric tricycle is an eye-catcher! You will notice that many people will gape at your Cabbike 3 Electric Tricycle. License and insurance NOT needed in all US States and Canada. Easy to use: simply turn the right handlebar to accelerate. You never need to pedal.

For a limited time only, it is FREE UPS Ground shipping. You save $100s of dollars on shipping. Take advantage of this fantastic deal now! Comparable electric tricycles retail for over $2,000!
