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. The only requirements are you be 21 years of age and know how to ride 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.
