Kick Off at Riihimäki

I recently noticed from eCars.Now mailing list that soon there will be some sort of gathering in Riihimäki area. It's supposed to be projects "Kick Off", to start actually building the prototype for the conversion. Everyone is invited to join, so I booked myself to participate. 

In the gathering we made some plans for the first prototype, named eCorolla. We made some rough estimations about components and skills needed. Alltogether there were perhaps 15-20 attendees in the KickOff meeting, all very nice and enthusiastic people.

I also 'had my feet wet' in the EV-cars - I drove my first EV ever ! It was Citroen Berlingo, front with original motor and back filled with new Lithium batteries. Although little short, it was quite nice ride !
