7. Flume Trail, Lake Tahoe Nevada

A crowd favorite, this trail offers all the beauty of nature.

8. Horseneck Road, Massachusetts
This road is truly a hidden gem. Because it’s little-known, it has little traffic and offers a relatively flat ride. The countryside is lush and fertile and is known as the Heritage Farm Coast. Offering the most temperate climate in New England you’ll cruise past huge dairy farms, cornfields, and bountiful vineyards which border the Westport River as it leads to the Atlantic. We highly recommend this as a scenic route where you can sit back and enjoy both your E-Bike and your surrounds.
