Comments Off on Renting Ebikes in Jacksonville, Florida

If you’re staying in Jacksonville and looking for something new and exciting pastime, consider renting an electronic bike! Ebikes are gaining ground in popularity as a bicycle with an electric motor that assists the operator whenever they pedal the bike. This makes for an easy ride as well as being able to cover longer distances without breaking a sweat. Florida law classifies electric bikes as regular bikes, and not as scooters or mopeds. This means ebikes are allowed to go wherever a normal bike can go. A driver’s license is not needed to ride an ebike.

Ebikes are not to be operated by anyone under the age of 16. However, those 16 years and older are not required to wear helmets.

A great shop that rents ebikes is Pedego Ponte Vedra. The fees for these bike rentals range from $25 an hour and $100 a day, to $35 a day and $125 a day. The ebikes themselves range from a beach cruiser, to a serious mountain bike, to a tandem bike! Whatever your need, you’ll find it here. Each rental is provided with a lock and a helmet. If you love your electric bike so much that you’d wish to buy one, you’re in luck! Your rental fees will go toward the price of purchase.
