MY FIRST RIDE ON AN EMTB – Rocky Mountain Altitude Powerplay while in Switzerland
While in Switzerland, I was able to enjoy my first experience riding an eMTB (e-Mountain Bike). This one happens to be the Rocky Mountain Altitude PowerPlay C70. This was a totally different type of bike than what I am used to and I now understand how people can climb these steep hills.
