Pedego Greater Long Beach Cruises Toward 1st Anniversary

SEAL BEACH, Calif. - Feb. 4, 2014 - PRLog -- One year ago Seal Beach welcomed a new Pedego electric bike shop in town, and it was love at first ride. Locals gushed about the fun they had zipping around on these stylish and powerful bikes. Pedego Greater Long Beach settled into the Pavilions shopping center, at the corner of Main Street and PCH, around Valentine’s Day … and the love affair continues. Co-owners Beth Black and Brian Ballard are thrilled that Seal Beach became the permanent home of their Pedego Electric Bikes dealership. “Everyone has been very supportive of what we do here,” says Ballard. To celebrate, they’re throwing a big party at the Pedego shop and inviting the public.

This event is scheduled for Saturday, February 8, starting at 1:00, rain or shine. “We’ll have a lot of food and fun,” says Black. Celebrations at Pedego GLB always include a magic show — just one more way this bicycle shop is unique. Ballard, a professional magician and member of the Hollywood Magic Castle, is set to entertain. Activities will also include a raffle with prizes. The shop is also offering a discount on some of their chic biking accessories.

The Pedego Owners Group, a social group of Pedego riders, will take guests on a group ride around Seal Beach, Alamitos Bay and Naples Island before returning to the shop for more treats. Several electric bikes will be available for visitors. Bikes are available on a first-come-first-served basis on the day of the event. Those who plan to ride should bring a jacket, though helmets will be provided.

Black and Ballard are delighted by the store’s success mostly because of what it means for the community. While a lot of locals rent or buy the bikes for the fun they bring, even more are becoming Pedego owners to commute to work. Black and Ballard are proud to have replaced a lot of cars on the road. “In addition to sharing the fun of electric biking, we passionately promote alternative transportation,” says Ballard. “And it’s time to celebrate our success.”
