Bikes and Bites is a Drumheller, Alberta-based bike tour operator and rental provider specializing in electric and fat-tire bikes. The business offers a diverse collection of guided tours and self-guided rentals that showcase Drumheller's unique badlands scenery, coal-mining history, and accessible family experiences.
Tours range from short town explorations like the Boom Town Tour to longer adventures such as the 50 km Dinosaur Trail Ride and the 30 km Wayne Ride to the ghost town of Wayne. The fleet includes step-through e-bikes for comfortable rentals, fat-tire e-bikes with a maximum speed of 30 km/hr and a 50–70 km electric range, youth multi-gear bikes sized for 4'11" to 5'3", a powered fat-tire tricycle for extra stability, and trailer or Ride-A-Long options for young children.
Helmets and safety orientation are provided for every rental and guided ride. Guided experiences highlight local stories and safe routes through parks, residential roads, Kohut Crossing, Horsethief Canyon viewpoints, and other scenic pathways. Picnic options and an included lunch stop at the Last Chance Saloon on the Wayne Ride are part of select itineraries. Two additional experience names listed in the program are the Suspension Bridge Tour and the Drumheller Art Tour.
Bikes and Bites serves visitors and families seeking active exploration in Drumheller. By combining equipment options, clear safety practices, and local route knowledge, the operator enables riders of varying abilities to enjoy the valley's outdoor highlights.
