This is a combined local Anchorage history and ebike tour. The ebikes ensure a pleasant and relaxing ride covering a large swath of Anchorage city. You will be guided on a tour through Anchorage's history, from pre-colonization through the present era. Along the "way" we'll cover Anchorage's history as a tent city labor camp to the aviation hub to the military buildup in World War II and through the oil-boom of the 1980s.
The bike tour will mostly be along Anchorage's scenic greenbelt trails, including the Coastal Trail. Our route also takes us through the Campbell Creek and Chester Creek bike paths, were moose sightings are common. Belugas and bear have also been sighted.
All in all it's a fabulous way to spend a half-day in Anchorage, getting to know the city's history, enjoying a near-effortless ebike ride, and seeing the surrounding mountains and (with luck) seeing wildlife.

Fun both in learning how to use electric bike and also wonderful city bikeways. Leland was very attentive to guest and answered many questions along the route.

Equipment was top notch. Lee was prepared for everything. He gave us a e-bike lesson before we began the tour. Our guide, Lee, was knowledgeable and the tour was informative. It was the perfect mix of biking and history lesson. I very much enjoyed the half way stop at a locally owned small business for a refreshing drink. Would absolutely recommend this tour to everyone interested in a fun adventure without being too physically taxing.
