The Elf takes a swing around the Durham Farmers’ Market
Welcome to the future of urban eco-mobility with the Elf.
Organic Transit Vehicles (OTV) feature solar electric assist, disc brakes, and spacious interiors that keep you out of the elements and in view of other drivers. In addition to the driver, the Elf is capable of carrying a 300-pound payload (that’s a lot of groceries). The Elf is designed to make bike commuting accessible, practical and affordable for the many, not just the few.

It has required diverse groups to come together toward a common goal: Creating a world-class city representing equality for all. Durham Mayor William Bell says banning same-sex marriage isn’t just bad for the moral fabric of Durham, it’s bad for business.
