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

Thanks for a great review Russell! Safety is something we highlight before we tour through the Asheville bike paths, city streets, neighborhoods, and green ways. There is much more to explore, so we hope to see you on one of our other tours through scenic Asheville!

The electric bikes were so fun! Our guide, Joe was entertaining, knowledgeable and made sure that everyone was safe and comfortable on the bikes. What an excellent way to explore downtown Asheville! We loved it and actually went back to visit many of the locations we rode past and spend some time in the places Joe recommended. We will be back!

Thanks for a great review Sally! The Flying Bike is grateful that you chose us for your first ever E-Bike experience! E-Bikes are our favorite way to get around. With the various levels of pedal assist as well as the option to throttle, you are able to tour with virtually no effort! Or, you can turn down the level of assistance and burn some calories! We are glad to hear your guides made you feel comfortable on your first ever E-Bike ride and shared some great stories of our unique history! Thanks Sally!
