Overview

We offer a unique experience viewing Kent on an electric bike. Whether an individual, couple of small group, we have a number of marked routes that pass many of Kent’s great attractions including historic castles, vineyards, a brewery, famous gardens, beautiful villages and lots more.  One of the popular trips is around the Kentish Weald visiting local vineyards, having a tour and tasting award winning wines.

The electric bikes are comfortable and reliable.  If you have never used an electric bike before, you use it exactly the same way as a pedal bike. The difference is that when you pedal, the motor kicks in to assist you.  Electric bikes are great for groups of people who would normally cycle at different speeds.  With electric bikes, everyone can cycle at the same speed by altering the amount of power coming from the bike.

You can hire for a half day (10am-1pm or 2-5pm) or a full day 10am-5pm.  Get in touch for hire prices.

I would thoroughly recommend using The Electric Bike Centre if you want a ride out in beautiful countryside. The route for the vineyards was excellent with quiet roads and lovely scenery. The bikes are easy to ride and well maintained, Marcus who owns the company is both pleasant and knowledgable and nothing seemed too much trouble for him. A very pleasant day out

Cycled using photo guide provided by the operator. Went to Balfour Winery for platter lunch and wine. It was lovely. The lanes and narrow roads were quiet and safe.

Marcus was so helpful and kind. We took a train to Headcorn from London and he offered to pick us up from the station which was so wonderful and unexpected. We thoroughly enjoyed the day and was able to easily find Sissinghurst Gardens and a wonderful pub for lunch. Marcus supplied us with detailed maps and various routes to explore. Heartedly recommend!!
