What the day feels like
What the ride feels like
This is a relaxed, guided e‑bike tasting: riders meet at the Pedego Harbor Country shop, set out along the lakefront with their own Pedego e‑bikes, cruise to a nearby tasting room, sample local wines and beers, then return to the shop after an afternoon on two wheels. The pace is social and scenic rather than athletic—focused on tasting room stops and enjoying the shoreline views.
