Electric biking launched in Surrey
Natural Discovery – an eco holiday company based in Guildford – has teamed up with two local hotels to offer guests an electric biking experience in the Surrey Hills.
Lythe Hill Hotel and Spa, Haslemere, and Macdonald White Horse Hotel, Dorking, are now offering guests the option of hiring a bike run by rechargeable batteries.
Although riders are still required to pedal the bike, an electric motor – which runs for around 25 miles before needing to be recharged – can be activated to help with steep hills. A stock of between three and five bikes will be held at each hotel until client demand has been established.
The £39 hire price includes a discovery pack containing a range of suggested routes, local information and places of interest as well as a helmet, a spare pannier, a lock, lights and an emergency kit.
Anne Milton, MP for Guildford, said: “I wish Natural Discovery every success in their venture. I have offered to try out one of their electric bicycles in the parliamentary bike ride in June.” Details: www.naturaldiscovery.co.uk
