The Richmond Experience Rides With Us
We took The Richmond Experience on a Downtown Sunset tour, and here is the Reel they captured on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/p/CM0KEd9HYm3/
Did you know @basketandbike and @rvaonwheels teamed up? Yep, you can now visit them for a variety of your experiences and rentals on wheels as you explore Richmond, from bikes to segways to trolleys and beyond 🚲🚏🚃
We joined Basket & Bike for a “Discover Downtown” electric bike tour — and as much as I thought we already knew about Richmond, our guide Holly had so many interesting pieces of RVA history and trivia that we had never heard before 🤯 Aside from getting to see sights we haven’t laid our eyes on much throughout the winter, we truly learned a lot!
We opted for the 2.5-hour tour on Pedego electric bikes to help us ride faster and further for more hilltop views of downtown throughout our experience ⚡️🚲 I had never ridden one before, so I *will* say there’s a bit of a learning curve (I fell a time or two 😅) but once you get the hang of it, it makes riding uphill a breeze and is a total game-changer for exploring the city on wheels!
Each tour ends with a free beverage from @theurbanfarmhouse ☕️🧃🍺 Plus, $5 from each rider who books a tour is donated to Basket & Bike’s rotating conservation partners @capitaltreesrva, @jravirginia, @vcuricerivers, and @bridgeparkrva 🌳🍃🌱
I’m hoping to try their “Signature Ride” soon on a classic bike, which is a leisurely 14-mile guided bicycle tour along the Virginia Capital Trail to @uppershirley 🍷 If we do that one, I’ll be sure to share it here, too!
