What Makes Our 2025 Tours Stand Out?
Feature | Why Guests Love It |
Custom Electric Bikes | Fat‑tire stability, powerful mid‑drive motors, and spare batteries mean no range anxiety—up to 27 mi. & 3,000 ft. gain on half‑day tours, 40 mi. & 5,000 ft. on full‑day adventures. |
All‑Inclusive Gear | Helmets, gloves, hi‑viz vests, spray‑misters, and endless cold drinks + healthy snacks. You pedal, we handle the rest. |
Photo & Video Package | Your guide snaps pro‑quality shots (included), so you can relive the ride—and brag about it—long after you’re home. |
Local Storytelling | Learn Gold‑Rush lore, native plant ID, and insider Yosemite tips from guides who’ve spent decades in the Sierra. |
Wildlife Moments | Cows, turkeys, deer, and the famous Clydesdales & mini‑donkeys—we stop so you can feed and photograph. |
Adventure Add‑Ons | Level‑up with Gold Panning or a Rock‑Climb Combo—guided by climber‑writer Chris Van Leuven and crack‑climbing legends. |
