Needless to say, would 100% do this again. Well worth the money paid! Registration and getting ready: easy to register and pay online. The day of, we arrived 10-15 min prior to the start of the ride as requested. Check-in was easy, they provided water, snacks and even some gloves for the ride. Each e-bike had it's own saddle bags to put stuff in. Our tour guide went over the different functions/controls and we were off. The Ride: So so so much fun. We biked from the shop to the beach (saw loads of animals), the cypress trees including the Lone Cypress and then down to Pebble Beach visitor center. Took a 30 min break to walk around and get some snacks and then back to the shop! Staff: Awesome. Many thanks to Zane for the chill but also informative ride. He paced the ride perfectly. We went at a nice brisk pace but not once did I feel rushed. He was also very attentive to the riders and made sure that no one was left behind or lagging. FYI: dress in layers! It was both chilly and too warm during parts of the ride. Recommend sunglasses and a hat.

As someone who was using an electric bike for the first time, I was a bit nervous at first, but I’m so glad I gave it a shot! This tour totally blew me away. The electric bikes made the ride around Pebble Beach and the iconic 17-Mile Drive so much fun – they were super easy to handle, and the extra boost made those scenic hills feel like nothing. Our guide, Zane, was fantastic! He knew so much about the area and shared some really interesting stories about Pebble Beach, the 17-Mile Drive, and the local wildlife. On top of that, he had such a great sense of humor, keeping us all laughing and engaged throughout the tour. It felt more like an exciting adventure than just a bike ride. The views were absolutely stunning, and having Zane lead the way made everything even better. I’d definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting, especially if you’re new to electric bikes like I was. It’s the perfect mix of fun, learning, and breathtaking scenery. Big thanks to Zane for making this such a memorable experience!
