eBike Access
NOTE: Ebikes are bicycles equipped with a battery-powered “assist” that can be engaged while pedaling. When pedalling an ebike, the electric battery kicks in and provides additional pedaling power. Ebikes are a great option for beginners, riders with physical limitations, or anyone looking for a boost while riding from uphill ascents to all-day expeditions.
