Event Description
With all the new public charging stations recently added in West Michigan, we are planning a less than 150 mile circular (triangular?) driving tour from Muskegon, Holland, Grand Rapids, and back to Muskegon.
Note: The event location is ONLY the starting point. We will depart there at 10:00 AM.
The full itinerary is now on my blog: 2021 DEED (muskegonevguy.com)
We plan to stop at a number of charging locations, spend a bit of time to allow for charging, getting a coffee or snack, along with some socially-distanced masked EV discussion. Join for all or part of the tour.
Bring your mask and some coffee and snack money so we can show new EV charging hosts that their investment was money well spent.
Note Rally Arrival and Departure Times. Come for any of the location hang out times or do the whole circuit (~120 miles). We will try to keep cars together and caravan. However, follow all traffic laws including speed limits, traffic lights and stop signs. If you get separated, meet up at the next location. Look for the EV charger locations which are all listed on PlugShare.com.
