Thank you so much for your kind words. We appreciate your support.

Hi. Thanks for sharing your experience. Thanks for watching.

There are so many great things to see in this country. We can’t wait for our next road trip - Acadia National Park in Maine. Thanks for watching.

@@Adventuresonebikes , There sure is! We’ve recently fallen in love with Arkansas. We mountain biked in Bentonville a couple of weeks ago and already booked another trip for next month and then we want to try Lake Hamilton. I retired a couple of months ago.

Sounds like you’re living the life!! We make our first trip to AR this fall.

Thanks for your continued support of our channel!

Wow! We’re overcome by your kind words. The videos of the full bike rides will come out soon. We have so much fun planning these trips and riding all these great trails that we’re happy to hear you find them helpful. Thank you for your support of our channel.

Our bikes are Gazelle Ultimate C8’s - a class 1 ebike. Our goal when purchasing our latest bikes were (1) get more mileage out of the battery, (2) sit straighter and more comfortably. We are very happy with these bikes as they can go up to 90 miles on a single charge in ECO (we’ve never gone more than 65 miles, but never had a worry about the battery), they sit straighter and the handlebars are adjustable. Also, the bike has a Nexus 8 system -- eight gears are built into the rear hub of the wheel. They are protected against the wind and weather, and this reduces wear and maintenance. Combine this with a belt instead of a chain and your bike maintenance is kept to a minimum. You can also shift from a complete stop, which is really handy if you’re crossing a road and forgot to downshift before-hand. It has hydraulic disc brakes, front and rear fenders, a fully functional back rack and front shocks. Lastly, Gazelle is a brand that you can find in bike shops all over the country - making it easier to find service should you need it. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

Yes, we are riding Gazelle Ultimate C8’s. We are very happy with these bikes. When we bought them we were looking for (1) ride upright, (2) long distance on battery. They have both these - 90 miles on the battery - plus a drive system that allows you to shift when at a dead stop and no metal chain. In addition, the Gazelle can be repaired at a large nationwide dealer network. We haven’t had any problems, but it’s good to know. BTW: Class 2 and Class 3 bikes are banned on most trails. It’s my understanding the main difference is that Class 1’s don’t have a throttle and have a top assist speed of 20 MPH. We’ve gotten up every hill we’ve attempted with our Gazelle’s. We had Class 3 bikes prior to this and are way happier with the new bikes. I must admit I miss the throttle, but can get over it for the other features. Thanks for your support of our channel.

@@Adventuresonebikes Thank you for such a thoughtful reply. Very helpful. Happy trails!

Definitely stay Class 1! NFL-size here with same on Hase Lepus. Try to get internal gearbox/hub. Rohloff hubs here. If possible, gears far better than cassettes!

We don’t have anything special, just purchased seats that have a little more padding than the ones that came with our bikes. We find the only way we can ride long distance and not feel beaten is to wear padded bike shorts. I bought a seat a few months ago that didn’t have the horn on it. It seems to make a difference, but I felt like I was always going to slide off, so I put my old seat back on. Here's a link to that seat on Amazon if you're interested: www.amazon.com/dp/B0CGL1D7DW?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details&th=1. How the seat is positioned seems to make a lot of difference as well. So you might want to play around with seat position to see if it helps. Thanks for watching.

Primarily we use the TrailLink app. There is a free and paid version. I’ve had the paid version so long I can’t remember the difference, but I think it is that you can download maps and get GPS directions to the trailheads - which is more than worth the $19.95/year the paid version costs. Plus you are supporting trail advocacy through their non-profit parent company Rails to Trails Conservancy. Thanks for watching.

Thank you for the information...@@Adventuresonebikes

Thanks for your support. We ride Gazelle Ultimate C8’s.

No. It’s made to tow - just need to put it in flat tow mode. Thanks for your continued support.
