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 thoroughly enjoyed our e-bike adventure and would highly recommend! Our tour guide and set yp team we absolutely phenomenal. We were a group of middle aged gals. Two of four [and not me 🤣] fell over before we left the parking lot as we got used to the feel of the bikes. They are super easy to handle and just a great way to tackle hilly areas, pedal when you want and/or can. We stopped and saw some incredible views. Take the tour.... it will not disappoint!

We are happy to hear you were able to master the E-bike, they are a dream come true, when it comes to tackling the elevation in Asheville. If you can ride a bike you can ride an e-bike, especially with the help of our wonderful guides. We appreciate you riding with us and taking the time to leave us a 5-star review!

We enjoyed our e-bike experience but wish our guide would have slowed down so we could have seen what we were passing by. Some downhill speeds were at 27 mph! Too fast for me…I was not comfortable. Our 3 hr tour was back in 2.5 hr so maybe we were rushing. We had a small group and were a little older so I think that should have been a consideration.

Torin was an awesome tour leader. We had a great time riding through the very hilly streets of Asheville with ebikes that made the trip a breeze. The stop for a taste of bbq at Luella’s was great, and the view from the Grove Park Inn was incredible.

We are lucky to have Torin as part of our amazing ownership group, he is a fearless leader for both our guests and staff! E-biking is the best way to leisurely explore Asheville, the mountains could be hard to bike for most people on a regular bike. We love the intimacy you feel with your surroundings, while exploring by bike, and the accessibility that E-bike provides! Most people with a basic comfort on a regular bike are able to pick up an E-bike. We are glad you enjoyed your Downtown tour with Tastings, WE would love to have you back. Thanks for leaving us a great review, be well!
