Backroads Rolls Out Custom Performance E-bikes for National Bike Month
In honor of National Bike Month, Backroads, a leading name in active travel, is set to introduce a new fleet of custom titanium performance e-bikes. These state-of-the-art e-bikes, perfectly designed for a seamless riding experience, will be available this summer on select biking trips across Europe and the United States.
Founded in 1979, Backroads has established itself as the premier luxury adventure travel company, pioneering cycling tours that offer unique experiences. Each year, the company continues to innovate with diverse biking adventures, ranging from challenging tours for those seeking adrenaline to relaxed e-bike journeys for leisurely explorers. This summer marks the debut of their new performance e-bikes, engineered for longer distances and superior climbing, providing smooth support that aims to enhance every ride.
New Tour Offerings for 2027
To complement the launch of these cutting-edge bicycles, Backroads is also unveiling exciting biking tours for 2027. Enthusiasts can look forward to exploring the picturesque wine region of Uruguay, embarking on a four-country journey through cycling's historic Ardennes from Luxembourg to the Netherlands, and challenging routes in the spectacular Dolomites. A unique, first-ever Home Base Biking Trip in Tuscany, along with an Active Culinary Bike Tour from Parma to Venice, adds to their expanding portfolio.
Families can rejoice as well, as the company introduces new trips suitable for all ages, including locations such as Croatia and Norway. Backroads recognizes that different riders have unique motivations; whether you want to push your limits or enjoy the ride with a hint of assistance, they aim to cater to every need.
Emphasis on Community and Charity
Backroads holds a strong belief in the transformative power of bicycles, a conviction reflected in its decade-long partnership with World Bicycle Relief (WBR). This nonprofit organization works tirelessly to enhance access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities in underserved regions. In conjunction with the launch, Backroads staff are participating in WBR's annual Pedal to Empower fundraiser, coinciding with World Bicycle Day on June 3. Congratulations are in order as WBR reaches a remarkable milestone—distributing one million Buffalo Bicycles globally to rural communities in need.
Rooted in Tradition and Future Innovation
With new technology and expanded trip offerings, Backroads continuously honors its biking heritage while paving the way for the future of active travel. This initiative not only enhances the biking experience but also promotes a sense of community among riders who share a passion for exploration and adventure. As they celebrate National Bike Month, Backroads invites everyone to rediscover the joy of biking, either on their new custom e-bikes or their traditional pedal-powered tours.
