Sunlight slips across stucco and Ionic columns as the e-bike hums down a country lane, vineyards on one side and a Palladian villa framed against the sky on the other. The ride feels deliberate—pedal-assist nudging you through fields where craftsmen once quarried stone for the very facades you now study from the saddle.
