Napa Valley Wine Tour Promotion 2 people for $99!

Napa Valley Wine Tour Promotion 2 people for $99!

OH YEAH… we just launched our Summer Promotion… Get TWO all-day electric bikes for the AMAZING price of $99! (Regular Price $150)

Summer is finally here and we have decided to lower our prices this season!

Starting tomorrow, you can ride our bikes for the low price of $99 for two people and Saturdays at $75pp. You can now reserve online at http://changeofgreenery.rezgo.com/. First come – first serve! Days will be blocked off on our online calendar as soon as it is filled.

What do you get with your all-day bike tour?

-          2 Electric Bikes that can go up to 18mph with a range of 30 miles using pedal-assist or 15 miles using it as a mini-moped.

-          35 Different offers on 5 different maps using the included Napa Valley Green Card Key. This includes 2-for-1 wine tastings at Domaine Chandon ($25 savings), Trefethen Family (Save $10 or $25 for their reserves), Clos du Val ($15 or $25) and many many other deals such as 10% off their food purchases from The Monticello Deli, The Food Mill and any spa package treatments from The Napa Valley Marriott Spa. For a full list – please check out this page. This bike ride pays for itself!

Ohhhhh yeah... we pick up your wine!

-          Complimentary wine and retail pickup from our Cabernet colored Yamaha Vino moped. Once you return the bikes, we’ll give you your purchases.

-          We also include roadside assistance, but our ebikes ARE equipped with THORN-RESISTANT tubes for those pesky goat heads in Napa Valley. We keep one bike on hand to immediately REPLACE the bike wherever you are at!

-          Bikes MUST be picked up from 9am – 12pm. Return is anytime before 6pm. We are closed Tues & Weds.

Why electric bikes vs. regular bikes?

We see regular bike riders all the time – you know, the ones sitting under the shade on the side of the road trying to catch their breath or trying to seek salvation from the heat and from long periods of bike riding. For people who are VERY familiar with Napa Valley afternoon winds, our bike riders tell me that the motor “saves” them and they get to see sooooo many different things in a shorter time period by going a little bit faster with more strength! Our bikes can actually go up Atlas Peak and Mount Veeder. Trust me, I’ve done it before (and even rode with “real” cyclists for a few miles).

It’s VERY rare that we get a complaint on our bikes and our service, but yet we hear horror stories from our partner wineries about “bike renters being ‘too hot’ on a regular bike and are too bitter to enjoy their visit.” Last week, I heard about a woman who demanded someone from “X Bike Company” to pick her up immediately because she was too exhausted and could not pedal anymore to return the bike. Don’t let this happen to you!

Check out our reviews on Yelp – we are currently at 27 reviews at an average of 5-stars! Woohoo!

We are also listed as “9 New Reasons To Love Napa Valley” for 2011.  We could possibly be dubbed as “the best time you’ll ever have on a bike!” So what are you waiting for? Get out of your car and onto these amazing bikes! Woooooooohooooooooo!

I’m looking forward to seeing you this year in Napa Valley!

A Thank You Note

I’ve gotten many hugs, compliments and gifts but this one tops it all:

Carolyn:

Just wanted to say another big, huge THANK YOU for all your help and amazing customer service at Change of Greenery.  My friends, Carrie and Julie, and I really enjoyed our day on the electric bikes and will definitely be back for another ride soon!   Change of Greenery provided us with a perfect way to tour Napa Valley at our own pace (but with much needed help from “pedal assist”), and we had an amazing ride!.   The added bonus of the Napa Valley Green Card was terrific, and definitely helped us map our way to the recommended wineries and businesses.  And, the retail pickup of our wine purchases was way above and beyond the call of duty but much appreciated.  I will definitely be back, and will be recommending Change of Greenery to all of my friends and clients!

It was great to meet you, please keep in touch if there’s ever anything I can do for you.  I have a million ideas running in my head about your business and how it can reach out more.  I will be sharing my experience with some of my industry friends and hope they will have an opportunity to check out the bikes and support your business.

Meanwhile – contact the folks at Balloons Above the Valley – ask for Kevin, one of the pilots and the one we had for our ride.  He mentioned that occasionally, they cross promote with other Napa businesses.  I will say from personal experience that Ballooning and Biking were the 2 main things on my agenda.  Their balloon ride and your bike ride were the PERFECT complement to each other.  I think you should contact them and see about doing some business together.  I can just see it…Balloon & Bike specials!

I researched all of the ballooning companies, and this one had the most personal service with amenities, experienced pilots and staff – they have the largest balloon in the world in their fleet, and they were the least expensive.  After experiencing it firsthand, I would definitely recommend them without hesitation.  Check out their website at www.balloonrides.com.  The people I dealt with were Kevin (pilot), Micah (admin) and Stephanie (admin).

Good luck, hope to see you soon!  And let’s do more business together!

*Maybe we’ll post some of our pics on your Facebook group page? ;)

Best Regards,

Lori O.

This awesome pair loved their ebike tour! They spent the entire day on the egreenery bikes and Joe is reeeeeaallllly interested in purchasing one now! He even sent me a fantastic email stating how amazing the bikes were and Jane told me that it was the most fun they had on their 4-day Napa vacation! We’re glad we can assist (pedal-assist that is!).
