Conveniently located in the North Point Market Center across from North Point Mall, Pedego Alpharetta offers tours, rentals, sales and service of Pedego electric bikes. Visitors and locals alike enjoy riding Pedego’s electric bikes for sightseeing and visits to historical sites, restaurants and shopping. Guided and self-guided tours include scenic pathways such as the Big Creek Greenway path, which takes riders along a leafy and peaceful route away from traffic. Riders enjoy cruising along a natural setting with views of blue heron, deer, ducks and Canadian geese. Also offered are group rides for pleasure and fitness, including team-building rides that include scavenger hunts and other fun activities.

“With ease of riding up hills and through headwinds without a care about distances, Pedego riders can relax and enjoy our region’s beautiful scenery,” said Tina Godwin. “A Pedego bike is also an excellent alternative transportation option for locals, providing an affordable, fun way to commute to work or around town.”

“The first time I rode a Pedego on our nearby paths, I couldn’t believe how fun it was. I got a great workout when I wanted to exercise and cruised along when I wanted to just enjoy the scenery,” said Greg, an avid cyclist. “We love sharing the fun of Pedego bikes with our community.”

Prior to opening Pedego Alpharetta, Greg worked for his family’s small business, Four Seasons Pottery in Sandy Springs, selling concrete garden art. Tina was previously in the golf and hospitality industry.

“Pedego bikes let riders explore and cover more distance than they could by foot and see more than they could from a car,” said Pedego Electric Bikes CEO and co-founder Don DiCostanzo. “Riders can zoom to numerous destinations for sightseeing, shopping, dining, recreation and work while enjoying Alpharetta and the surrounding areas.”
