An electrically assisted bicycle includes an electric motor which applies a walk-push assisting torque to a rear wheel of the bicycle when a rider propels the bicycle by pushing it while walking, and a motor controller configured or programmed to execute a first mode in which the electric motor applies no torque to the rear wheel, a second mode in which the electric motor applies to the rear wheel a stay assisting torque which causes the electrically assisted bicycle to stay in a position where the rider wants to stay, and a third mode in which the electric motor applies the walk-push assisting torque to the rear wheel, wherein the first mode, the second mode, and the third mode are able to be selected by using an operator able to be operated by the rider.
