No. This trail is mostly flat with few hills, easily walkable up some small hills if preferred. Though we would suggest a speed bike with few speed options.  Again, limited space for Fat tire bikes, and all accessories like bike bags must be removable.

Yes, easy peasy, you'll be riding in 5 minutes with a big smile on your face. No worries there. Though, if still unsure, we're happy to take the time for you to become familiar with your bike and feel safe.  You MUST be able to ride a bike though.

There might be slight wait before vehicle and you connect, but no worries we have you.

We have waivers for all to sign prior to departing.  Insurance requires all riders must wear helmets and no alcohol while riding bikes.  Those renting bikes will be required to sign rental agreements, bring ID and credit card, while we pay rentals, you are responsible to care for your bike. Hotel check-in will require ID and credit card for incidentals.   Emergency contact form also required for each rider.

You don't need fancy bike cloths but stretchy pants or shorts do make riding more comfortable. We are not the fashion police however we do recommend not wearing denim while riding, trust us on this.

Another option we suggest is BCAA. You don't have to be a member (though they do offer discounts to members). On their website, you can purchase their travel insurance to cover the costs if you need to cancel.  To do this, you will ask for insurance for the amount of tour, and two days.  Make sure you check about Covid-19 details.  

You must pay for tour prior to purchasing, however they do offer quotes prior.

Covid protocols have eased, we would be happy to connect you with another single on tour, with their permission. 

We would suggest chatting and getting to know each other before deciding if this would be a fit for both of you. You may just meet a new life long pal.  Warning: If for any reason during tour you decide this is not a fit, sorry we can not adjust or refund costs. You would be required to seek out another room option on your own, at your own expense.
