Paved - PEI Cycling Tours avoids the main highways and uses secondary roads for our paved sections. About 80% of our road routes include comfortable shoulders for riding. Any hills are relatively short with maximum 4% grade.
Unpaved - Back roads and heritage roads are unpaved and can be very smooth as well as rutty. Great for gravel bikes and those looking for off route adventures.
EBIKES
Information for Ebike riders
Because every rider, road condition, and elevation profile is different from day to day, it is up to the rider to assess there range as they ride along. Our Ebikes have a range of 100-120km per day if riding at the lowest level. Using higher levels affects your range so keep an eye on your battery level and if you need to charge at your lunch break you’ll need to take your charger with you. If bringing your own Ebike, you know your bike best so we trust you’ll ride accordingly. If you run out of battery before you get to your destination and can not ride unassisted, we can help shuttle you for an additional fee.
