    Pedelec technology seems to be really improving and I'm definitely seeing more of these things around the city in the last year. I have no idea what sales are like in Ireland but I read recently that there was a 30% increase in pedelec sales in Germany last year.

    We've decided to organise a road test of some of the lastest pedelecs on a closed city centre street on Friday 17th of September as part of European Mobility Week. More details available here

    Fishamble Street is short but its nice and steep so it should provide a decent test.

    We're also planning another larger event on the following Wednesday (22nd). A few important things have to be sorted out but I'll try to post details by the end of the week.

    This thread seems to deserve a bump.

    "The event itself, titled King of the Mountains, will take place on Fishamble Street (beside Civic Offices) from 12.00-18.00 and all are welcome to try out the newest Pedelec technology on one of the city centre’s steepest climbs."

    Race?

    We have a really nice pedelec which we would like to raffle among those who give the bikes a try. Also we hope to have a signed jersey from Dan Martin, winner of the Temple Bar crit. We thinking about offering the signed jersey as a prize for some form of competition but we can't decide what to do. Any ideas ?

    We should have 6 -8 bike brands along on the day to try out.
