While I am a local, our guide Alan taught us some new things about Aiken. The Pedego bikes were easy and fun to ride after the training session - great to experience an electric bike ride! It was a very relaxed tour, and we each were provided a helmet and bottle of water. The bikes had a holder in front for water and "saddle bags" on the back to store your personal effects. I felt very safe with "Alan-in-the-Front" and "Alan-in-the-Back" aiding our group in navigating the roads, through sand, and intersections. Highly recommend!!
