About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- wldtravels0 contributionsGreat day biking around Norfolk from cruise ship - very close to pier - very easy to get toThey opened early because the ship was in port. We arrived to rent our bikes and opted for the full day instead of half day. It was a really hot day, so they provided a bottle of water, a bike lock, a bike bag, helmets with connected intercoms (Meshnet connections), and a bike route map for our ride around North Norfolk. The small details were really nice. We signed our waivers, went over the map and route info, received an overview of the bikes and path markings, and off we went. We bike a lot at home, but were really happy we opted for e-bikes to see Norfolk because it was a hot day and this enabled us to bike without missing options we might not have done otherwise. We stopped for food along the way back to the shop near the Chelsea area because we had the time with the all day rental. It was a great way to finish our tour. In all, this was a really nice way to tour the city and surroundings.Written June 23, 2024
- O7805EPbarryp0 contributionsNot Handicapped friendlyThis is a new place in Norfolk. Food is generally good. Portions are very generous. We all got take-home enough for next day lunch. The only problem I had was a dumpster was in the only handicapped space. This is world class dumb!Written May 21, 2024

- nancymurray30 contributionsBike rental from Pedigo in Norfolk, VAI participated in an EOD Wounded Warrior fund raising bike ride in Williamsburg and rented an ebike. Amy brought the bikes to the ride, showed us how to ride them, and joined us on the ride. I was a little apprehensive at first but Amy worked with me until I was comfortable. I had a great ride and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Looking forward to another opportunity to work with Amy at Pedigo!Written October 18, 2021
- FunForever610 contributionsFantastic EverythingRicky was so friendly and helpful. Had a snag and he rushed over on his electric skateboard to rescue us. Fantastic experience! Getting an electric bike sooner than later!Written October 15, 2021
- ETTASHE0 contributionsNorfolk Pedego Electric Bikes - Like a Kid in the World's Best Candy Store!!!I have 2 favorite parts!! First, look at their YouTube video. Amy, the owner is just like that, very cheerful and pleasant!! Jerri is the same way. I felt so comfortable talking to both them! The store is absolutely gorgeous and breathtaking with the new car smell!!!!! They have EVERYTHING!!!! I felt like a kid in a candy store! Second favorite part was my test ride!!!! I had no earthly idea what I was missing!!!! I looked at plenty of online videos on how to operate these bikes so I felt 100% safe biking on the street and around the dock!!!! Oh course, I had a helmet on!!! I'll have to check if my current bike rack is ebike rated; otherwise, that Interceptor would have gone home with me today!!! Lastly, I looked for a quality store that sold quality ebikes and Norfolk Pedego Electric Bikes IS that store!!!! No, I did NOT get paid to say any of this 😆🤣 if only!! If you want an ebike that will last, visit this place REAL soon!!!!!Written October 8, 2021
- mariadR1743TJ0 contributionsOh, heck yes! I'll buy a Pedago electric bike.Kevin was very knowledgeable, kind, and patient as he trained, guided, and led a tour for my sister and I. I hesitated to use the throttle but after a few tries from a complete stop the extra throttle power was awesome. The pedal assist is also a good feature, similiar to cruise control on a car. The pedal assist does not engage after applying the brakes. The overall experience was superb and most importantly fun!Written October 5, 2021

- naduhlil0 contributionsIf you are thinking about it, do it.This was so much fun! We rented bikes for the afternoon and went on the Elizabeth River Trail start to finish and back, stopping for lunch and a beer and to see gardens and sights along the way. Such a great deal for the price! We would love to do it all again but would do an entire day next time. Thank you pedego downtown Norfolk.Written August 21, 2021

This was a first and awesome experience for us renting electric bikes. We wanted to ride around Norfolk and burn off a few of the many calories we’d consumed (yes, even electric assisted bikes you can get in some decent pedaling). After trying a few Lime bikes, most of which were either dead or had flat tires or both, we sought out Pedego in Norfolk. They couldn’t have been nicer, the bikes in great condition and actually less expensive than the Lime bikes. We were able to get to pretty much anywhere very quickly and the batteries never even registered use after 3 hrs. We highly recommend Pedego in Norfolk if you’re wanting to see the city in the fresh air and get a little exercise while doing it.

Thank you so much for choosing Pedego Electric Bikes for your e-bike adventure. We strive very hard to make each rental customer feel at home and our goal is to make sure every customer is delighted with their Pedego Experience. We will see you again soon. P.S. Don't get us wrong, we do love Limes, especially when they are on a cold Margarita glass.

Rented an electric bicycle for 4 hours. Excellent customer service at the pickup, enhanced by the staffs recommendations of sites to see along the bike path. The bike was extremely easy to use and safe to operate with helmets and locks included. Pricing was very affordable with an hour of free time included. Overall I would say an excellent option for exploring some of the sights of Norfolk and so much fun that the four hours just flew by.

It was a nice and easy going trip. On the ride out I noticed that when I got up to speed the pedals would free wheel. Before I went back I shifted the gears to maximum and I got the resistance that I was missing from Before.
I got lost a few times because the trail was not clearly marked. It would have been nice to have a guide to point out places of interest on the way. Overall it was enjoyable. I don't feel tired nor am I all sweaty. I would recommend this

Thank you Joseph for choosing Pedego. It was nice helping you figure out the advantages of an e-bike, over a conventional bike. Great news is that the Elizabeth River Trail Foundation received funding for additional signage, to help ensure an easier ride and staying connected to the trail. We hope to see you again soon.

These bikes go FAST! It was so much fun checking out the Elizabeth River Trail. Half of the ride was through trees and backroads and half was through the city. We loved checking out the city after living in Hampton Roads for 50 years and never getting the chance. We are sold on the PEDEGO and are buying our own!! So comfortable and easy to ride. I recommend stopping halfway through and getting a bite or a drink. If you get the chance go get on one!!!!

Even though they are usually closed Mondays, one of my cruisemates alerted them and they agreed to open for us. I did not have a reservation, I was able to rent last-minute on site. Staff was very accommodating. I had a glitch with my bike and they were very helpful. The bike trail by the waterfront is a nice, authentic way to see the area, through neighborhoods and such, mostly very safe although there’s a few road crossings. You might have to keep your eyes peeled for the trail marker signs in town, but they can also give you a map if you get off course.

Fun, Fun, FUN! This bike shop is such a gift to tourists and residents alike. You can rent an E-bike and tour downtown Norfolk easily and safely on bike paths. The scenery is lovely. Their day trips are also great. They provide everything you need. Don't let the miles on the day trips fool you, riding an e-bike makes it all doable! Even for someone who had not ridden a bike in over 10 years (me...). Kevin, Amy and the entire staff are beyond helpful, you will feel like family. I loved the experience and riding e-bikes, I know you will too!

The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable and explained all the features of the bikes. They also offered to let me take a more powerful one for a test ride. We had a great time doing the Elizabeth River Trail and stopping along the way to see some sites we had never seen before.

Amy Oliver (owner) was fantastic. As we were first time e-bike riders, she took the time to help us get comfortable and even rode with us for a while. Her team was just as great, accomodating, patient and very warm. Overall, we had a great experience and would recommend this Pedego team to everyone.

Awww, thanks. You're going to make me blush. I really enjoy when I have the chance to take a short ride with customers, as it gives me a chance to know them a little better and also to help see how they ride and which bike model & size would be a perfect fit for their riding needs. Please stop in next time you are close by.

I am looking forward to repeat the activity on a warmer day. Me and my wife rented the dual bike and we had a lot of fun. Amy was an excellent host and provided all information and help needed.
I will definitely recommend this activity to anyone visiting Norfolk

We had a great ride through areas of the city that we had not explored before. The e-books we rented were great and really added to our experience. Amy and the whole staff were friendly and very helpful in getting us out for this adventure. We had not tried e-bikes before and were interested in riding them to see if it is something that we might purchase in the future. We are definitely leaning in that direction after this experience. We highly recommend this company to everyone!

Truly humbling to read such a nice review. Your delight in the Pedego Experience is our #1 goal. Our goal is not to sell you a Pedego, rather, our goal is to help you find out if a Pedego Electric Bike is something you will enjoy and get many years of happiness from. It is very important to try out e-bikes in person, before you made a decision to buy. Try many different models, shapes and sizes. Make sure YOU feel comfortable on the bike that you want to buy. Our brick-and-mortar store is here for YOU. Ride any and all of our models to hone in on YOUR perfect Pedego and know that we (and Pedego) will be here to support you and your bike.

I have 12 year old twins. My grandson is 5ft tall. My granddaughter is a little under 5ft but both are on their bikes riding all the time. I am here while their parents are at a business conference and want something fun to do with them. Wii they be able to be part of a e bike tour?
