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 Flying Bike
Join us on a fun-filled and informative bike ride around Asheville! Meet us in the heart of the South Slope amidst the breweries and restaurants that are making a name for this neighborhood. • Our first stop will be the amazing Basilica of St. Lawrence, a masterpiece of local architecture. We’ll tell you stories about this impressive structure, which features the largest unsupported dome in North America. • From there we ride down the quiet streets of the Historic Montford Neighborhood alongside some of the most beautiful grand old homes in Asheville. We’ll take the peaceful Reed Creek Greenway as we climb through North Asheville neighborhoods up to the historic Grove Park Inn to get a magnificent view from the Sunset Terrace. • Heading back downtown, we’ll stop in Pack Square, a perfect vantage point to learn about Asheville’s abundant art-deco architecture, the 2nd largest collection in the U.S. We will share stories of Asheville's recent history, its challenges and triumphs.

Fun, safe, and chock full of history, this tour was outstanding in every way. Our tour guide, Ethan, was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. He had so much history, recommendations, and humor to share with us that we definitely got a great head start here on our vacation.

This is a terrific way to see Asheville! We whizzed around the city as well as in suburban Asheville and the Grove Park Hotel. Our tour guide was very informative and humorous. Ideally having microphones in the helmets would assist in hearing the tour guide.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave us some great feedback! We realize noise pollution in our city riding can be a thing, we are looking into ways to combat this issue. Ideally the stories we share with the group will take place during the stops of our tour. Our guides will continue to share and connect with our guests during the ride. They will rotate the order to ensure every guest will get an opportunity to hear their guides recommendations. Also, this is a great time for our guests to ask any questions they may have. We are glad you enjoyed your experience with us and left us a 5 star review. Hope to see you flying with us again, be well!

From beginning to end, every part of our experience was excellent. Super easy booking. Friendly and helpful arrival staff. Our guide was excellent and incredibly knowledgeable about the history and architecture of Asheville. The e-bikes are high quality and easy to operate. Highly recommend. There is a saddle bag on the bike to bring water, raincoat and personal items.
