NTS Works in Santa Cruz gave me a shot at trying their new “Fat Free” ebike a few weeks ago.

NTS Works found Neal Saiki will discuss the features of this machine at tonight’s Santa Cruz Tech Meetup, which takes place at the Cruzio Green Building on Cedar Street beginning at 6 PM.

Before Neal talks about his ebike and gives one away to kick off a fund raiser for the Aptos High School Robotics Team, JoeBen Bevirt will talk about his latest mad scientist project. JoeBen made millions from his Gorillapod flexible camera mount (remember those?), bought a winery in the Santa Cruz Mountains and began research in alternative energy production using giant kites. His new thing, though, is this electric personal aircraft.
