Update on the EV Expo: there will be a Leaf, a Volt AND a Tesla on display. Plus the Crown Coach and 10 or more converted vehicles, plus bikes, scooters, a couch AND an outboard motor manufacturer.

Plus much more in the way of trade displays, presentations and other stuff!!!

And don't forget an electric car as the prize for one voter in the show-n-shine People's Choice Award. (well, an electric, scale model, remote control one at any rate :)

Let me know if you want to enter your EV in the show-n-shine. Prizes for best converted EV, best mass manufactured EV, best EV bike, best alternative EV and people's choice award.

Am putting the EV display layout together later this week. NB: am sending out confirmatory emails and a map to those that register at that time.

Cheers

Hi Bryce, I have got 30+ photos, including one with you in it. But I have no idea how to put them up anywhere at full resolution.
