Arrive early for fitting
Plan to arrive 15 minutes before departure so guides can adjust the e‑bike, helmet, and give a safety briefing.
Charge and carry water

Keep steady speed, signal early, and follow the guide’s placement to stay safe on mixed traffic roads.

Provide good pedal contact and protect feet during stops and short dismounts.
