Wheels hum to life on Highway 101 as salty wind pushes riders north along the coast. The guide leads a small group through Del Mar, Solana Beach, Cardiff-by-the-Sea and into Encinitas, the Pacific on your right and pockets of surf culture on your left. The e-bikes do the heavy work—pedal assist and optional throttle—so the rhythm is steady, not rushed, as the coastline unfolds.
