Additional Info
  • Specialized infant seats are available
  • Suitable for all physical fitness levels
  • The electric bikes will take all of the hard work out of your ride. We routinely have riders that span the spectrum of age and fitness. The main requirement is that you be coordinated and fit enough to balance a 55-pound bike. A training and practice session is provided at the start of each tour. For people that would like to go on the tour but are not able to balance a bike, it is possible to arrange a ride on the back of one of our stretch cargo bikes that will be driven by another person in your party.
  • Legally, you must be 16 years or older to operate an electric bike. Guides reserve the right to request proof of age of any rider. Riders should also be at least 5 feet tall to operate their own bike. Guests younger than 16 may ride as a passenger with an adult in their group on the back of one of our cargo bikes or in a child seat (for children ages 1-6 or up to 48.5 pounds).
  • Tours are subject to favorable weather conditions. If there is light rain in the forecast but none at the start of the tour, we will decide together at the time of the tour whether to ride. We will provide rain ponchos and rain covers for the storage bags on the bikes to protect your belongings. If canceled due to poor weather, you will be given the option of an alternative date or full refund.
  • Social distancing enforced throughout experience
  • Gear/equipment sanitised between use
  • Guides required to regularly wash hands
  • Contactless payments for gratuities and add-ons

We had a wonderful time on our tour with Steph. She did a great job teaching us how the e-bikes operate and guiding us through the streets of Asheville in a safe manner. We learned bits of Asheville's history, saw beautiful architecture and enjoyed the fresh air!

This was an awesome experience!! Our entire family of two parents, three grown children, and one son-in-law had a blast touring Asheville with the electric bikes. It had been a while since most of us had been on bikes, but the training and instruction had us all feeling comfortable, Our adult son had Down syndrome and Torin and the staff were so accommodating to him. Our son rode tandem with my husband and they all had a great time. we were all thankful for the electric bikes. The stops were perfectly timed. We really enjoyed the stops for coffee, BBQ, and chocolate. They were so much fun. And the view from the Grove Park Inn was just breathtaking. Our family has visited Asheville several times, but this is by far the best time we have ever had. We hope to make it an annual tradition. Thank you to The Flying Bike for wonderful family memory!!!
