Our rental bikes are quality Trek bikes with mid-drive and rear-hub motors. Our bikes are regularly serviced so you can enjoy your ride without worry. We do have some regular acoustic bikes as well.
Some of our bikes are more powerful than others. NONE OF THEM are scooters - you must be willing to ride a bike - but the hills wont be nearly as hard.

Can you recommend a route:
* NOTE: We generally recommend our customers avoid the Fulford - Ganges road as much as possible. Side roads on Salt Spring are much quieter. The Fulford-Ganges is a little like a highway with little room for cyclists.
North End to Fernwood Dock - Highly recommend this route. Its generally quieter than all cycling on Salt Spring and there is LOTS to see and do.
Leave town on Upper Ganges Rd, Visit the Woodshed, follow Upper Ganges to Central, right on North End Rd, past the lake, right on Fernwood. From the Dock its a choose your own adventure. Some of our favourites: Fernwood dock, Hen and Hound farm stand, North End Farm, Southy Point (In the most Northern tip… go figure), Fraser’s Thimble Farms Nursery (lovely spot),Sunset Beach, Vesuvius Beach, St Mary Lake, the Cidery, and Kutastas Vineyard.South End Route to Ruckle - Up Ganges Hill to Beddis Rd, follow until Cusheon Lake Rd, hang a Right, then a left on Stewart. That will take you to the wonders of the South Island. Some of our Favourite spots: The SS Cheese Factory (must see), Ruckle Park Trails, Barb’s farm stand on Beaver Point Rd, the Tsawout Nation Reserve on Menhenik, and Cusheon Lake.
We recommend doubling back the same route and not going via Fulford-Ganges.Mt Erskine - Amazing hike with an incredible view. The adject map will get you to a great starting point. About 5-8 mins into the walk you will come to a fork in the trail (left, straight, or right) - go STRAIGHT! 5 mins later, stay right. Great hike with incredible views (challening in a few sections. For those seeking a move level walk, check out Ruckle Park.)
