What the creator captured
Matt Yoon attempted to push his new Sizzle ebike to its limit by riding 21 miles to the dunes, only for the battery to die just short of his destination during the first attempt. After dealing with mechanical issues and a dragonfly collision, he successfully completed a second more conservative ride that allowed him to enjoy a sunset on the beach. He concluded that while the journey was physically exhausting, the views at Pismo Beach and the stay at Dolphin Bay made the effort worthwhile.
