Guests pick up a lightweight Emmo Urban scooter or a 500-watt G5 capable of hauling up to 400 pounds of cargo and spend a full day zipping through the scenic downtown of Niagara-on-the-Lake. The clean-running electric bikes run for 40 to 70 kilometres before requiring recharging, a replacement battery, or a peanut-butter sandwich. Since Ontario law regulates electric scooters as bicycles, riders do not need a driver’s licence or insurance, but should wear standard cycling helmets and comfortable clothing and shoes. <p>
