electric bike safety course Key West, free orientation by appointment
Schedule a complimentary safety course and orientation with licensed instructors before you ride our pedal-assist cruisers around Key West. Sessions are by appointment, usually early morning for calmer streets.
electric bike safety course Key West is offered free by appointment at Florida Keys Electric Bikes, located on Rockland Dr in Key West. Our licensed instructors run a focused orientation that covers bike controls, proper helmet fit, using pedal-assist at speeds up to 18 mph, and how to work the front and rear lights, lock, and GPS transponder on every bike.
The 20 to 30 minute session includes on-bike practice and a short neighborhood ride so you can feel comfortable before heading to popular spots like Old Town, Duval Street, Mallory Square, Fort Zachary Taylor State Park, Truman Annex, and Bahama Village. We tailor tips for island conditions, including crosswinds on Roosevelt Boulevard and parking or docking near Southernmost Point. The safety course is complimentary with rentals and available as a standalone orientation if you prefer to bring your own bike.
