ELECTRIC BIKES
Most people that rent electric bikes from us head to the Bike Path through Waterfront Park downtown. Some will take our ebikes all the way out to the railroad causeway to the Lake Champlain Islands ten miles north of Burlington, pictured above. This four-mile rail trail, built right out into the lake in 1901, is one of the most spectacular rail trails in the United States today. It was named to the Rails-to-Trails Hall of Fame in 2010. It is a must see for visitors to Burlington.
​
We have a selection of electric bikes for rent for $74/day, add 7% for sales tax: EZ Pedalers, Rad Runners, Lectric and Gazelle ebikes allow us to fit the ebike to the person. We have ebikes suitable for tall people, short people and those in between.
​
Child seats are also available for an additional $10 for some ebikes.
​
We will provide you with a helmet (or bring your own if you'd like), a lock in case you stop for food, and a paper map of the Bike Path and Causeway. We also provide instruction on the use of the ebike. It's easy.
​
Customers can pick up ebikes at our shop at 86 Main St. any time between the hours of 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Ebikes must be returned to the shop by closing at 5 p.m.
​
It's as simple as that! Reservations are a must.

Check out the new PBS documentary:
​​It's a one hour documentary about the nationwide rails to trails movement over the past 50 years. It includes a section shot in Burlington, the Causeway and the bike ferry. And it features an interview with Rick Sharp, the owner of Burlington Segways and Electric Bikes, for his work on creating the Burlington Bike Path in the 1980s.
