Join your local guide near the waterfront and get acquainted with your hybrid bike. Equipped with an electric motor and pedals, this curious contraption lets you control just how hard you want to work. Pump your legs between stops or simply turn your wrist to roll around with ease as you explore.

After a quick riding lesson, head toward the waterfront and the Santa Monica Pier. Make a brief stop at the beach to dig your toes into sugary sands before making your way onto the pier to snap photos of the antique carousel and ever-spinning Ferris wheel.

Continue your leisure ride through the beautiful neighborhood of Venice, which was founded as a seaside resort town back in 1905.

Then, muscle up at Muscle Beach the favorite workout spot of Arnold Schwarzenegger back in his Mr. Universe days. Finally, hop back on your cruiser and pedaling—or not!—back to the starting point.
