That's right, you can ride right from our parking lot to many of the awesome trails, just a short ride away. Link these trails on your phone using the Ride With GPS link. These routes are easy to follow and provide you with a lot of information, including points of interest along the way.
Ride with GPS is also ready for your use to explore beyond what we suggest. There are a ton of cool side routes and trails near the shop.

This is an Arizona Rails to Trails project. Along the trail are outstanding views of Watson Lake, Granite Dells, and wildlife viewing. The Peavine has six miles that was originally built by the Santa Fe Railway in 1893. The Peavine connects with the Iron King Trail for another four mile trek along more railroad bed.
The Prescott Valley Iron King Trail begins at the base of Glassford Hill. The summit of this hill is at 6,177 feet elevation and serves as a natural landmark, reminding us of the volcanic past in this region. The trail features several rest areas where you may view and sit in railroad service cars. Also, the trail has three wash crossings that utilize flatbed railcars that are strong and secure for the public.

We all want our favorite bike at the right time. That's why you need to submit a rental reservation to ensure we have bike you want, well in advance of your ride date. We suggest at least a one-week advance reservation on your choice. However, you may find the bike you want, even on the day of your ride (not recommended). Having to settle can be frustrating.

The size of a bike is very important. Fortunately, many of the e-bike rentals are one-size-fits-all. You can come to the shop and try out your selection in our parking lot before you rent.

Bikes need to be appropriate for where you're going to ride. Talk with us about where you want to go and your skill level. Each bike handles different terrain, so ask our experts for their advice. We can suggest the right bike for you and your ride expectations.
When you rent, you are responsible for the bike. Even if it is stolen from you, or you crash, you will have to pay for the retail price of the bike (or, for repairs - up to the retail cost of the bike).

Damages, vandalism or misuse are your responsibility. You don't have to clean it before you return it, but heavy dirt and mud may lead to a cleaning fee ($35). Normal wear-and-tear is expected, but: popped or skidded-out tires, bent rims, bent derailleurs, broken spokes, dented frames, etc., are not normal wear-and-tear. Please treat your rental kindly, ride within your limits, always wear a helmet, and bring it back in a condition that lets us rent it again.

It is not very likely to run out of battery during a ride. However, it is not impossible. If you only use the electric throttle and don't pedal then you will deplete the battery much faster than normal and may have to pedal your way back on your own power. We recommend that you pedal just like a regular bike (using the pedal-assist function) and you will go much farther on battery assist.
Although we do provide you an emergency tire repair kit, you still may be left walking back. We do put sealant in all the rental tires do help avoid a flat tire. Unfortunately, we cannot prevent or predict road conditions or guarantee freedom from punctures.
We will offer to re-schedule your rental to a later time (or a different day). However, prior to taking your rental, we will provide you with a 100% refund if you must cancel due to bad weather. Monsoons are very common in the Summer, so it may rain for a while and then completely stop. If it rains during your ride, you are obligated for the entire rental fee.
All renters have to sign our rental agreement and waiver before heading out.
It's always best to book ahead. However, you can rent anything available at any time.
