Comments
What is the closest place to rent or test your models. I am located in Lake Tahoe but don’t see much around Reno.
I would love to support the brand at my Envision Tahoe venture summit next month up here at the lake.
My board chair, Chris Mac of gear lab promotes your great a lot as a Tahoe local. How can I get it up here and give it a run?
Best, Derrick
Hello Derrick, Unfortunately we don’t operate too many in person locations, but we do have a network of affiliates who might be in the area to test a specific model on a limited basis – https://ride1up.com/locations/
