Silent Throttle: Surron E-Bike Days from Spear-O-Wigwam into Sheridan’s Foothills.
From the ridge above Sheridan at Spear‑O‑Wigwam (Forest Road 293 near Park Reservoir), Surron dirt e‑bikes unlock the region’s open prairies, backroads and foothills with a quiet, lightweight package. These small electric bikes require no prior motorcycle experience, offer long range in eco mode and are rented by the day through Sled Wyoming, making them an accessible option for exploring the Bighorn Mountain foothills without the racket of a conventional dirt bike.

With its lightweight design the Surron handles tight trails and open stretches with ease, offering a balance of speed and control ideal for a full‑day rental.
