Day moved to Aiken with his wife Caroline several years ago and opened DayBreak Adult Care Services, a successful business caring for the elderly in their homes. His wife discovered electric bikes, and it was love at first Pedego ride for Day. “Every time I ride, it’s like I’m flying on a magic carpet,” he said. “I love leaving my car parked at home and cruising around town on my Pedego. Every ride fills me with joy and excitement.”
Pedego Aiken offers rentals, tours, sales and service of Pedego electric bikes. The Pedego Aiken store is located near many scenic bike paths that take riders to numerous historic and scenic destinations. A manned Pedego rental kiosk is located in Aiken’s downtown historic district. Riders have the option of guided tours or bike rentals, empowering them to discover more than they would have found on foot or by car.
Aiken’s South Boundary Avenue has been rated as one of the Top 10 scenic streets in the United States. The equestrian district boasts gorgeous historic mansions that make sightseeing by Pedego a pleasurable experience. A local arboretum trail takes riders along a picturesque path. All of the streets in Aiken are lined with live oaks and southern pine trees. Scenery takes center stage while riders enjoy gliding on their bikes, pedaling or not as they choose. Riders can conquer hills, headwinds and distances with the bike’s PedalAssist and twist-and-go throttle.
“Aiken is beautiful with exquisite scenery and fascinating historic homes,” said Pedego Electric Bikes CEO and co-founder Don DiCostanzo. “Riders will truly enjoy all the beauty since they can cruise greater distances with ease.”
