Important Info
We offer meeting spots in Arrowtown (30mins from Queenstown) which is between 1-2hrs ride from the 1st Winery. Or meet us at the Kawarau Suspension Bridge (40mins from Queenstown) which is 10 minutes riding to the 1st Winery. Both locations have great, free, all-day parking.
Ride for as long or as little as you'd like. Just drop the bikes back at the start and lock them up and we'll scoop them up later with our Whizzy collection team.
Whilst we provide you with the essentials like an E-Bike and a helmet you'll need to bring along anything that you'd like with you on your adventure. Handy things to pack include :
-
Phone and camera
-
Suncream
-
Water and snacks
-
Sunglasses
-
Coins for the goat food!
Our larger bikes all have a bottle holder but regrettably the smaller bikes don't have space on the frame. If you need to pack things in a bag, a small backpack is recommended to keep everything safe and secure. There are water bottles available on request, we also have phone holders that can be great for recording those all important TikTok vids!

Comfortable clothes and footwear are essential for riding E-Bikes on the gravel trails around Queenstown. In summer the temperature can get up to the high 20's and riding in shorts and tees is all good but pants and extra layers are definitely needed in the winter. Regardless of the season, dress for the conditions and always keep in mind that the prevailing wind can take a few degrees off the forecast temperature. To be safe, we'd recommend always packing an extra layer and don't forget your rain jacket if it's due to rain.
Here's whats included :
-
Premium E-Bike (Either mountain bike or step through styles)
-
Helmet
-
Bike Lock
-
Map
-
Good times!
