This was a great tour, the bikes were fantastic! I was aware it was a 5k ride but wasn’t quite prepared for the fact that two thirds of it would be uphill on a Rocky Mountain road. Our guide was very upbeat and spoke very good english. The only thing I would say is she kept going on ahead and was very hard to keep up with. Unfortunately 500 yards from the top I hit a rock and had quite a bad fall. It was quite a while before she realised. I was also surprised she didn’t have a small first aid kit, I’m sure I wasn’t the first to fall off. She did offer to call an ambulance which wasn’t necessary. I did make it back but was in a lot of pain. My husbands chain fell off on the way back and again she didn’t notice we were in trouble. When the office was told I had a crash, the guy immediately visually checked over the bike before asking if I was ok! Again no first aid was offered, so had to sort out myself at a pharmacy.

Great experience! Fran was an excellent guide, very chilled, aware of the road and surroundings and had a lot of interesting facts to say. The tour itself was a nice loop with amazing views, ebike motor got us up the hills easily, we stopped a few times to take pictures, we even made a little stop in a cute local restaurant to refresh. We really enjoyed the little trip, always good to get moving instead of just lying on the beach. Highly recommend!

The battery operated motor on the e-bike made the journey much more doable for me, since I’m not in peak shape (see what I did there?!?) but of course you still have to pedal so it definitely requires some exertion and my legs and arms were feeling it. Overall it was so beautiful to get out into nature and see a different view of the city, and get some exercise. My poor bottom is pretty bruised! I highly recommend the tour. An inexperienced mountain biker like myself was in great hands with guidance from our highly knowledgeable, caring, tour guide Ari, who spoke perfect English. Trevor had a flat tire so Ari changed the tube on the trail and also gave us a lesson on how it’s done at the same time.
