About the Adventure
Itinerary
We will be meeting at the Welcome Center of the North Carolina Museum of Art.
The address is: 2110 Blue Ridge Rd, Raleigh, NC 27607. Your guides will be
waiting near the Welcome Center with the fleet of e-bikes. Please arrive 15
minutes prior to the start time.
You’ll meet your experienced guides, have a brief safety meeting, and do some
quick orientation rides to make sure everyone feels comfortable on the bikes.
Once we embark as a group, we will do a bit of scenic riding through Art Museum
for some fun facts, then continue down the Greenway on the “Art to Heart” trail.
We will make several stops around Dorothea Dix Park and NC State campus,
among other historical locations. There will also be several stops for photo ops,
including an amazing overlook of the Raleigh skyline.
Prior to your trip, you’ll receive an email/text notification with all the details,
including the exact meeting time. Tours generally take place in light rain or shine,
and cancellations must be 72 hours in advance (see FAQ page). If the weather is
inclement, we will contact you with alternate arrangements.
Equipment
All participants will be provided with a pedal assisted Aventon eBike and a bike
helmet for their trip. Participants of all fitness levels can enjoy an easy and fun
ride, as you control how much (or little) effort you exert. Please dress in layers as
it always feels much cooler on the eBikes. The bikes may not have storage so
participants should bring a backpack or waist pack to store belongings and a
snack or a bottle of water.
The Ride
The guided e-bike tour is approximately 13-miles long, a leisurely-paced tour.
The adventure lasts around 3 hours and includes plenty of breaks and photo ops.
The bikes are motorized, allowing participants of all activity levels to experience a
fun ride without the work of pedaling.

To provide the best experience and ride possible, groups are limited to a
maximum of 10 participants aged 13 and up. Trips can be specially arranged for
larger groups, but please contact us in advance. See FAQ for more details.
