A low morning sun slides across the lawns of the Château de Versailles as a small group lines up to learn the feel of original electric two-wheelers. Guide JB checks helmets, hands out walkie-talkies and a GoPro, then signals forward; the scooters hum and carry the group down cycle lanes into the forested rises beyond the park.
