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

This was a great experience due to our wonderful guide, Brian, perfect weather and the beautiful city of Asheville. We do bike tours in cities we visit, but this was our first time trying electric bikes. It was so cool! The bikes were in excellent condition and Brian took time to make sure everyone in our group was comfortable on them before we started our tour. We loved the entire tour, but our favorite stop was the Grove Park Inn to see the magnificent view. Highly recommend this experience!

Alex did a great job! Seeing the grove park inn was amazing, the barbecue was delicious and the chocolate shop was amazing too! It was not too hard at all to learn how to ride the bikes. :-)
