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

The tour was a lot of fun. For us it ended up being a late addition to our trip and we are very grateful we did. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and helpful. Even those on our trip that hadn't ridden a bike in years said it was a blast. We would highly recommend.

Thanks for your great review! I'm so glad to hear everyone on the tour had a good time! We love helping everyone feel the freedom of mobility that comes with riding an electric bike! It's a great way to get around and to get a more intimate view of a city. Electro Bike Tours is planning a new tour for next spring so please ride with us again when you are in town! Torin

The electric bike tour was fantastic. Only a few minutes were needed to learn to use the bike, which flattened the steepest hills to small slopes. The route was interesting and the guide knew a lot about the sights along the way.

Thanks so much for your review! I love that you mentioned how easy it is to ride up-hill on these bikes. It often seems to me that the steepest hills are the part that my guests enjoy the most because they can't believe how little they are having to work! By next spring Electro Bike Tours hopes to have an additional tour to conquer new parts of Asheville's hilly terrain so please come ride with us again! Torin
