To all Perth enthusiasts of electric propulsion,
On March 10th, the Perth branch of the Australian Electric Vehicle Association will be holding another Electrikhana at the RAC Driving centre, Grogan Drive, Perth International Airport.
It has become the premiere event for the general public to jump inside an electric vehicle and take it for a spin in a safe, insured location. This year, Holden will be hosting test-rides in the Volt, Mitsubishi with the iMiEV and Nissan with the Leaf. Lots of DIY conversions to go around too. Even the E-max 110s scooters I dropped the A123 packs into are also available for a ride, but hold on
The highlight of this years Electrikhana is the opportunity for E-bikers to strut their stuff on the tarmac. We have both skidpans at the testing facility booked, so by cordoning off one skidpan we can host time trials of people's e-bikes. Prizes will be offered! There are some basic rules - wear a motorcycle helmet, long pants and a protective jacket, and your bike must have pedals that work. That's all
Entry for the public is $10, $5 for members of the AEVA (you can join here: http://www.aeva.asn.au/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=1)
Vendors who aren't corporate members of the association will be charged $100 to attend, so the incentive to join is fairly obvious
The next Perth AEVA meeting will be held on the 12th of February at Curtin University, Physical Sciences Building starting from 7 pm. We will be planning the Electrikhana in greater detail so come along if you would like to lend a hand.
See you there!

FFS volunteer organisations run out of charitable people fairly quickly for a good reason.
