VIEWS & BREWS E-BIKE TOUR
Looking for something fun and different to do in Roanoke? We've designed an epic adventure that allows you to enjoy the best of the city in a whole new way -- by cruising on one of our awesome Rad Power e-bikes!
The cost of admission includes use of a super-fun e-bike (with a basket on the back!) and helmet (yep, they're required); the service of our guide; and a tasting pour at each of the three brewery stops!
Safety is our top priority, so this activity is designed to include ample instruction as we build your skills on the e-bike. If you are unsure about participation, or feel you may need additional instruction before participating, please just reach out to discuss further. Although the e-bikes make handling the terrain beginner friendly, this is not the activity to choose if you aren't comfortable handling a bike. We recommend just renting an e-bike for riding on the greenway for guests who aren't already comfortable on a bike. This activity is especially fun for date nights; friends visiting from out of town; introduction to electric bike riding; getting to know Roanoke if you're new to the area or are considering relocating; and/or learning the downtown Roanoke brewery scene.
Please Note: We need a minimum of 4 participants to run the tour. If we do not meet that minimum, we can offer a discounted e-bike rental and go over some of the easiest views and breweries to access from the Roanoke River Greenway.
