Really enjoyed this trip! I was nervous about riding the bikes but the quick lesson at the beginning made it simple. Saw interesting secret parts of Austin but the best was definitely the mini bike part.
We were referred to Your Biker Gang's Fat Tire tours by an employee of mine. On a couples trip in late April we participated in the Food and City tour. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather and we loved our tour with Patrick. The bikes are easy to handle and safe to ride. We got to see many parts of the city and we really enjoyed ourselves. I think the tour was 2 hours and it could have been twice as long. Highly recommend this if you are looking for something "different" to do while in Austin.
Enjoyed our private ride this weekend through Austin. The weather wasn't too accommodating but that didn't stop us from seeing all that Austin has to offer. The guys were well informed and did a great job showing us the sights. They even improvised along the way to let us warm up our fingers and toes on a very cold day! Would highly recommend The Biker Gang to all for a very fun time!
We had an amazing tour today! Tyler was a fantastic guide. We saw the city, laughed so much and enjoyed the stop at the food trucks midway. Our guide was a true city expert, and very entertaining the whole time! You have to do this if you're in town. The bikes get lots of attention - people you pass will be waving and smiling at you. Check it out!
This experience is a blast! Where else can you lean back on your own fat boy and cruise the City without a license to ride? Granted, they top out at 20mph and your guide takes pretty good care to make sure you don't end up in crazy bad traffic.We went out on the morning trek with Justin. He did a great job teaching us the basics before we hit the road. It is important to remember this is a 'tour', not just a ride. Consequently, you make several stops during the tour to dismount, chat and take pictures. In addition, you only move as fast as the slowest rider. Unfortunately, they don't subscribe to the theory of Survival of the Fittest.Justin did a fine job explaining little factoids about the city as we tolled around. Our group was most interested in scenery and music, so those are the sites that he spent most of his time on. The only regret I have is I would have liked the option of cruising around a bit on my own at the end and just letting the bike fly down the streets. I think 20 miles per hour may be understating the performance of these beasts, but we never really had a chance to find out. More
The coolest, most badass way to tour Austin! The tour guides are energetic and knowledgeable about the area- had our group of girls turned to biker chicks before the training was completed. This will definitely be an activity on the agenda next visit to Austin!
We love the tour on the electric bikes. Myself being a first time rider, it was very easy to learn and felt comfortable the entire time. We enjoyed seeing the area and heard about the history and making stops along the way. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Austin!!
This was one of the most fun things we have ever done. What an amazing way to see Austin. Our O.G was Peanut. He was funny, full of great Austin facts, played good music and took some awesome pictures of us along out route. I was a terrible driver, but the bikes were pretty easy to handle, and I would still recommend this anyone old or young.
We loved this Trip. Whole Family had fun. Kids enjoyed it. Guide trained on bikes and then took us through different parts of Austin. He was fun, Listened to us and showed places that we asked for. Only bad part was weather. At 9 AM , it was bit cloudy and chilly but light jackets helped.
Such a great way to experience the city; you learn all the popular locals and lesser known hideaways. Patrick was an awesome guide!
We showed up for our tour and found we were a gang of only 3 -- us (Blade and Alli-gator) and Rooster. Rooster was a teacher in a previous life and it shows. He's a smart guy who is really good at his job. We had a great time, covered a lot of downtown Austin, learned a lot, and even stopped off for a snack and rest along the way. The bikes are really easy to use, and Sunday morning could not have been a more perfect time to be out and about. I definitely recommend this tour for a good taste of Austin.
