After three years of dreaming and planning, Kevin and Amy Edwards rode the incredible Trans America Trail coast to coast, Kevin on his Zero DSR motorcycle was the first electric bike to complete the TAT, while his wife Amy rode her WR250R. Kevin did some modifications to the stock Zero DSR to make the trip possible, including adding an extra battery and aftermarket fast chargers. While electric motorcycle travel has become a lot easier, being able to go from charger to charger on most routes, remote riding presents more challenges, and charging on route was one of the trials that they faced.
Kevin and Amy Edwards are mechanical engineers and own a company that works with power generation plants to design, install and maintain modernized systems for generating electricity.
