TOUR OVERVIEW

Adventure on two (or three) wheels, open to everyone. Our adaptive cycling experiences are tailored single- or multi-day tours designed entirely around the rider, so everyone can enjoy the beauty of Nelson Tasman from the trail.

At the heart of our adaptive fleet is the Bowhead Rogue, a cutting-edge, hand-operated e-bike built for riders with limited lower-body mobility. With electric assist and rugged suspension, it opens up coastal paths, forest trails and scenic countryside that might otherwise feel out of reach. We also offer a tandem option for riders who’d prefer to share the ride with a supportive pilot.

We work directly with riders, families and carers to plan every detail, from the route and pace to transfers, accessible stops and support on the day. Bring your friends and whānau too. With our wider range of bikes, the whole group can ride together and share the adventure.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Every adaptive adventure is designed around you, not taken off the shelf. Before we confirm your booking, we’ll talk with you, and with your companions, to plan:

  • The right equipment, whether that’s the Bowhead Rogue, our tandem or bikes for the rest of your group
  • A route that suits you, from smooth coastal paths to scenic forest trails
  • The support you need on the day, from transfers and bike set-up to help on the trail
  • Accessibility needs, including accessible stops, facilities and anything else that makes the day comfortable
  • Weather and back-up options, so your adventure goes ahead in the best conditions

That way, you can relax knowing every detail has been taken care of before you arrive.

BIKES, EQUIPMENT & SUPPORT

Our adaptive equipment is limited and every rider’s needs are different, so we plan each adventure individually. Get in touch with your requirements, riding goals and preferred dates, and we’ll talk through what’s possible, from the Bowhead Rogue or tandem to the right support for your day.

We’ll work with you to find the best fit, so you can ride and explore with confidence.
