Steintrikes Go Solar Across the US then Help Vet Climb Mt. Washington!
We have two incredibly inspiring stories that share a connection involving a Steintrike Wild One trike. First up we talk to John Gunterman. John is a US veteran who was injured in the middle east. He talks about his journey of recovery, how Steintrikes have played a part in it and how he now is dedicated to helping others ride to health. Setting goals is a large part of John's plan and his focus is now on climbing the notoriously difficult Mt. Washington next spring on a Wild One. Where this trike will come from takes us to our second story... Having set their own personal goal of promoting solar power and sustainability around the world, Megan and Polo created "The Green Journey". This young couple (an American woman and Frenchman) set out from Berkeley, California this summer on two electrified solar powered Steintrikes. They were attempting to become the first solar powered trikes to cross America. Along the way they met amazing people and shared their ideas on how to make the world a better place. 00:00:00 Intro 00:00:50 What’s on Today’s Show 00:02:03 Panel Introduction 00:04:00 Sponsor Introduction 00:06:15 Honza with the Recumbent News 00:13:20 US Vet to Climb Mt.
