Class 1 eBikes are welcomed on most of our fully supported and inn-to-inn tours. Class 1 eBikes are pedal assisted to a max of 20 mph and do not have a throttle. Class 2 or Class 3 eBikes are not allowed on any of our tours. We don’t support any type of eBike on our van-supported, educational, or self-contained tours due to the lack of overnight charging stations, mechanical assistance, and/or SAG vehicles on the road.
Tours that welcome eBikes will be marked with this icon:
Some inn-to-inn and fully supported tours do not support eBikes due to restrictions on our route or shuttles which limit their use. Additionally, various local, state, and federal regulations prohibit eBike usage on some roads and trails that these tours use. Some of our more remote tours prohibit the use of eBikes simply because they do not frequent overnight locations at regular enough intervals that allow for the robust charging needs that many eBikes require.
Some tours allow but require special permitting for eBikes. Your tour leaders will let you know if you need to obtain a personal eBike permit when they start their pre-tour communications with the group 60 days before the tour. You can check state and federal websites for up-to-date information about restrictions for e-bikes for specific jurisdictions.
Because every rider, eBike, road condition, and elevation profile is different, it is ultimately up to the participant to judge best whether their battery will last through each tour day. We recommend using pedal assist in its lowest setting or off when not needed to maximize battery range. Bringing a second battery is also recommended. They can be carried by staff on our fully supported events, but will need to be carried by the participant on our inn-to-inn trips.

Inn to Inn. “Majestic,” “striking,” and “otherworldly” are just some of the words used to describe the Black Hills of South Dakota, and you’ll see it all from your saddle as you cycle along lightly traveled roads and portions of the unforgettable Mickelson Trail, a 114-mile-long, gravel-surfaced rail trail.

Inn to Inn. Prepare for some challenging riding and mind-blowing mountain scenery as we’ll go up, over, down, and around the heart of the Cascade Range in Oregon. Pack lightly as we’ll stay indoors at a slate of hotels and mountain lodges, where we’ll take advantage of civilized dining and great swimming in several high-mountain lakes.

- Katy Trail | Inn to Inn | May 9-16 and Oct 4-11, 2026
-
Inn to Inn. There might not be a trail in the U.S. better suited for a relaxed ride than Missouri’s popular Katy Trail. Car-free, virtually flat, and featuring a crushed-limestone surface, the trail dishes up plenty of towns and attractions (and ice cream stands) along the way to keep things interesting. We’ve also broken the riding into manageable daily distances.

Inn to Inn. Ride with us through Vermont’s tranquil Northeast Kingdom with its colorful mountain vistas and stunning views of sprawling Lake Champlain. From fiery-red hardwood canopies to expanses of golden yellow, you can’t beat the breathtaking views of Vermont in the autumn. What better way to go leaf peeping than by bicycle?
