If you would like to try our electric bikes for a morning or an afternoon (3 hours) then this is the perfect route for you. You will ride through lovely Kent countryside, arriving at the pretty village of Smarden for refreshments half way round. You can also stop at Biddenden Vineyards where they welcome cyclists for a drop-in tasting.
This is suitable for those who are thinking about buying one of our e-bikes but would like to try for a longer period of time before they buy.
It's also great for those who would like a leisurely ride with a few stops en route.
This is an easy route to cycle, just under 16 miles, anyone can do it.

Why not fill up the panniers with local produce from farm shops on your way round.
