Breathtaking

Quick disclaimer: THE ONLY EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD WITH RIDING A BIKE WAS GOING UP AND DOWN MY STREET EIGHT YEARS AGO LMAO and I didn't know what I was signing up for. I really was learning as I went and yet I still had the best time. The e-bikes were amazing, top quality, & really helped a lot while still pushing me out of my comfort zone (quick tip: just het the e-bikes lmao...hills are few and far in between but they're there and they're a pain when they come). Still have no idea how to turn on tight corners tho lol. We really appreciated the shuttle, the ease of drop off & all the tips given to us <3 I fell a bunch of times, took wrong turns, and had to take a million breaks--but I would still do it all again tomorrow. Thanks Going Blue you guys are theee boommmbbb!
