This Mothers' Day, treat mom (and all wonderful women in your life) to a day outside, riding bikes, and spending time in the sun. Here at Blix Electric Bikes, two of our employees took their moms out on a Blix adventure to celebrate. We asked their moms to tell us five fun facts about themselves as moms and avid bike riders. Check out our special feature of Blix Moms on Bikes below!
Sarah and her mom, Mary Ann, love to take bike rides together when on a trip. Mary Ann lives in Pennsylvania and recently visited the Blix headquarters. Sarah took her out for a bike ride on the Aveny. Here are some fun facts we learned about Mary Ann.
What is your favorite food?
"Wow. I eat a lot of chicken. I love chicken. My favorite would be Lemon Pepper Chicken. "
What is your dream vacation spot?
"St. Thomas. I’d go back in a heartbeat."
Where do you like to ride your bike?
"Bike trails. I ride the D&L Trail in Pennsylvania often. I also love to take bikes out when I’m in new places. It’s a great way to explore. "
What is your favorite thing about riding an electric bike?
"The added assist of the motor. It's great going up the hills and I love the extra speed. After doing chemotherapy, I'm not as strong as I used to be. The ebike let's me get there a lot easier - I would miss not riding a bike."
Lastly, what is your favorite part about being a mom?
" Having two great daughters to have as my best friends. And of course, to take bike rides with."
Happy Mothers' Day, Mary Ann !
Sabrina and her mom, Anne, have always enjoyed spending time together being active. Since Sabrina was a little girl, her and her mom have ridden bikes all over Santa Cruz, especially on West Cliff Drive overlooking the ocean. For Mothers' Day her and Sabrina will be spending time by the beach and hopefully taking a sunset bike ride. Here are some fun facts we learned about Anne!
What is your favorite food?
"My favorite food is vanilla frosted lemon or vanilla cupcakes. I would eat them every meal if I could!"
What is your dream vacation spot?
"I would love to spend two weeks in France exploring Paris and Nice because I enjoy cities for their liveliness and coastal towns for their relaxation."
Where do you like to ride your bike?
"I usually ride my bike along trails in the University of California Santa Cruz, but my favorite ride is along West Cliff Drive at sunset!"
What is your favorite thing about riding an electric bike?
"I am a fan of electric bikes because of the pedal assist. It allows me to ride farther and choose when I want to pedal and when I want to cruise along using just the throttle.Sometimes it is nice to ride for leisure and unwind after work and having pedal assist reduces the effort I need to put into pedaling allowing me to relax."
Lastly, what is your favorite part about being a mom?
"Everything about being a mom is my favorite! If I had to choose one part, it would be helping my kids grow and watch as they expand their horizons while guiding them when needed."
Happy Mothers' Day, Anne!
