I've always though about doing that as well. Could absolutely be a fun journey. I can say this, I never understood the hype with the electric scooter. My boss bought our group a couple so we can ride around downtown on them, and well, now I get it. Those things are great. I could see myself cruising on one the majority of the greenbelt.

May have to think about getting myself one sometime in the near future.

Electric bikes are cooler than scooters. The scooters are almost deadly on the sidewalks downtown lol, they sneak up on you fast from behind.

Have you also learned that secret from the river; that there is no such thing as time? That the river is everywhere at the same time, at the source and at the mouth, at the waterfall, at the ferry, at the current, in the ocean and in the mountains.-Hermann Hesse

The river and greenbelt is such a beautiful asset. I travel frequently for work and have not yet seen anything that compares in the other cities I visit. It definitely does not exist where I live.

When I last visited, my hotel recommended to rent a bike from Idaho Mountain Touring in downtown. That store has a great selection of bikes including electric cruisers.

It would be a tragedy living somewhere where a river looks more like an irrigation ditch because of a lack of stewardship.

The Boise River is literally the soul of this city.
