You guys nailed it. Have a free half an hour? Just pop on the bike and head to the field behind your house, no matter what time it is. Only possible with electrics.
We have few sand dunes around here. Not my favorite type of riding, but it is important to develop skills. The Redshift is great in sand, as there is no clutch work which is typical for this kind of riding.
It will drain the battery quickly however.
My tires are not suitable for sand (Pirelli mt43), need to keep floating over the sand, but they don't dig much.
