The tour begins with the soft whir of an e‑bike as you roll onto the Bow River pathway, city glass rising to the west and river currents nudging the bike lanes. Pedals are easy; the helmeted guide points out a riverside café as steam from kitchens catches the morning light. You cycle across the Peace Bridge, pause for skyline views from Prince's Island, then let the city open up again with each chef‑curated stop.
