Why Riding Electric Bikes Is the Best Way to See the World

Electric Bike newbies and regular riders agree: There’s no better way to explore a city, countryside, or any intended destination than to ride right through it. Of course, while daily jaunts are great, there’s always more to see beyond the main attractions. Guided electric bicycle riding excursions—designed with varying degrees of trip length, difficulty, and cost—showcase the world’s diverse cultures and awe-inspiring views from an unbeatable vantage. The best part: You don’t even have to wear Lycra (unless you want to, that is).

Here are five reasons you should book a trip, hop on your E-bike, and see the world through one of these one-in-a-lifetime experiences.

 

Riding An Electric Bike Lets You Tap Into Your Inner Explorer

Who doesn’t crave a little adventure in their lives? Channel the nomadic lifestyle with Intrepid Travel’s Electric Mountain Bikes. You’ll traverse the area’s beloved Sovereign Trails, explore the red rock formations of Canyonlands National Park, and briefly hop off on two feet to hike the steep cliffside. Your trip can cover trails—from tarmac to slickrock and single track—to suit every rider.

Together With an Electric Bike,  an Eco-Friendly Way to Travel

Nearly 27% of harmful greenhouse gas emissions come from transport, according to the reports. Planes make up from 11.6% of that, while passenger vehicles total a whopping 45.1%—making the most environmentally-friendly way to travel by riding an electric bike. That’s what makes a cycling tour with Intrepid Travel,who have been carbon neutral since 2010,  a no-brainer. There’s never been a more exciting way to save the planet.

Cycling can help lower your risk of developing heart disease and cancer and reduce stress. And since cycling is a low-impact activity, it’ll work your glutes, quads, hamstrings, and calves while going gentle on your joints.

 

It Connects You With Nature

Exposure to nature can improve your memory and increase feelings of happiness, according to research. Sounds like some pretty solid reasons to try a cycling tour. During Intrepid Travel’s Cycling Utah: National Parks, you’ll be immersed in rock canyons, sandstone cliffs, and petrified sand dunes for six days. You’ll ride through some of Southern Utah’s awe-inspiring natural sights, like the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument and the colorful Kodachrome Basin State Park.
