3-Hour E-Bike Sightseeing and Breweries Tour in Roanoke
The Views & Brews electric bike adventure packs in sweeping Blue Ridge mountain views and 3 brewery tasting stops along a fun but safe course that winds from town to mountain and back again. After launching from the RMA shop at 2pm, you'll pass through neighborhoods and village centers before crossing the river into downtown Roanoke. In addition to tracing the Roanoke River and Mill Mountain greenway trails, you'll move through the central city and even enjoy a spin across the mountain on a fun (but easy!) gravel trail. 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. This is not the activity to choose if you aren't comfortable handling a bike. We recommend renting an e-bike for riding on the greenway for guests who aren't comfortable on a bike.
