Discover the Beauty of E-Bike Adventure Along the Adriatic Coast

Ciao, friends! I’m back with another exciting E-bike riding Adriatic coast adventure from our recent trip to Italy. This time, we hopped on E-bikes and explored the stunning Adriatic coast in San Vito Chietino. Let me take you along for the ride!!

E-Bikes: The Perfect Way for a bike riding adventure

We chose E-bikes for our journey, and it was the best decision ever. These bikes come with pedal assist, making it super easy if you are going against the wind or to tackle hills. We have also rode bikes in Vasto, Italy which is a bit more rustic of a ride. You can read about that bike ride here.

The bike path, which used to be train tracks, offered us breathtaking views of the turquoise Adriatic Sea on one side and rolling green hills dotted with charming Italian homes on the other. Everywhere we looked, the scenery was stunning!

A Tandem Adventure on the Adriatic coast

One memorable part of our ride was seeing a couple in our group trying out a tandem bike. She had a hip issue, and the tandem bike allowed them to ride together and enjoy the experience. It was sweet to see them share the ride and enjoy the beautiful scenery together.

Exploring a Trabocco in San Vito Chietino

We made a delightful stop at a Trabocco during our ride. These ancient wooden fishing docks, some of which have been turned into restaurants, are unique to this region.

We took a little walk down to the water by one of these fascinating structures, soaking in the history and beauty of the Adriatic. It is always so magical to have a bike riding adventure on the Adriatic coast!

Seafood Feast on the Adriatic Coast

After our bike ride, we enjoyed a delightful lunch at a restaurant on a Trabocco.

The menu was brimming with fresh-from-the-sea dishes. While I prefer white fish, many in our group indulged in mussels, calamari, baby octopus, and other local delicacies.

It was a true taste of the Adriatic!

Alfresco Dining with Friends

Later that evening, we gathered at our friends Bimbi and Spencer’s home for a lovely dinner in their backyard. The setting was perfect for an alfresco dining experience.

Bimbi prepared a delicious bean salad and rosemary roasted potatoes, but the star of the meal was a traditional Abruzzese dish called arrosticini.

These are small pieces of lamb skewered and roasted over an open flame—simply divine!

Sweet Endings

We ended the dinner with a sweet pastry traditional to Casoli, Italy called Cannoncini.

These delightful puff pastry horns filled with creamy goodness were the perfect ending to a perfect day.

Stay tuned for more of our Italian adventures! Whether it’s discovering hidden gems, indulging in local cuisine, or enjoying the company of friends old and new, there’s always something magical about Italy.

Buon viaggio and happy pedaling!
