Meet Ben Hepburn

Two years ago Kate and I bought a caravan and ventured far and wide. Being outdoorsy people, we spent many hours walking and exploring and took our very second-hand bikes on tour. Many times we watched as ebikes rode past us thinking, “That’s Cheating.” We were lucky enough to visit our son and daughter-in-law in Santa Cruz last year who gave us their ebikes to explore the county, and were amazed by the freedom and the pure fun of biking in the sun, the rain and the wind and the accessibility of so many places on and off the beaten track. Needless to say, we were both hooked on how much fun ebiking is and how it actually motivates you to just get out there and do it. When we came home, we wanted our own ebikes, and having researched what was available, we were hooked on MeloYelo and the company’s ethos, history and connections with EVolocity. So much so that we became MeloYelo agents for electric bikes in Wairarapa.
