10/10 would do this again! Our guide was super friendly and showed us great views of Austin. The bikes are easy to drive and a really fun way to see beautiful parts of the city. It was very hot when we went, but we were provided ice cold waters and even made two pit stops to water parks to cool off. Very neat way to spend a couple hours on a sunny afternoon.
I'm local, so I'll be back. I took my (70something) mom on a 9 a.m. vaguely-themed YBG tour (they offer some that are focused on specific aspects of Austin -- this one was more the general one) because it was her birthday and we had guests coming in to town and she still hasn't been downtown much. I expected the usual high points, just on a bike, and that would have been cool. What I got was a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide (Patrick) who took us on a tour that was an awesome combination of the usual high points and some fascinating side trips. (Dude knows a lot about all kinds of minutae, including chicken and tattoos and local plants and Texas history -- it totally didn't surprise me that he was a teacher in a past life!) We went places that I didn't know existed and had a blast. So, two thumbs up. And I would think this tour would be fine for almost anyone -- I drove because my mom gets nervous, but we were on easily operated, well maintained bikes and took safe, medium-traffic routes, and she totally could've handled it as well. Our fellow tour takers varied from college students on Spring break to, well, my mom. So anyone would enjoy it. And it's a pretty good deal for 2ish hours of really good guidance. Do it -- you'll be glad you did. More
We had a blast with the "Your Biker Gang" food truck tour of Austin. Coop (aka "Peanut") was an amazing guide- helping everyone get the hang of riding the bikes, playing awesome music during the ride, and bringing a ton of energy and fun to the whole experience. The bikes were an amazing way to see the city- really fun to ride, got to cover a lot of ground. Did this with a few coworkers on a biz trip, and we all had a great time. Highly recommend!
I had friends from out of the country visiting and this was the perfect way showing them around. It was so much fun and our tour guide was great. Will be back in a couple of weeks with the next visitors.
Had an amazing time! Rooster was a very knowledgeable tour guide and catered the ride to what we wanted to see. I would definitely do it again and hope that this becomes available in other cities.
My wife and I were celebrating her birthday riding these cool bikes. Rooster made sure we were safe, learned so much about the city, ate some delicious foodAnd most important had a blast!! Plus he took the best pictures ever! So we will always remember what an amazing day. Highly recommend Rooster. Until next time...Jess and Joel AKA Otter and BulldogSouth Florida
My wife and I had a great time riding the fat wheel electric bikes. We were the only two in our group so we received a personal tour from our guide Tyler, he's awesome! Tyler was informative, patient, and funny he definitely made the experience worth while.
Our guide, Justin, was super friendly and made the tour lots of fun. The bikes are a great way to see things you wouldn’t normally get a chance to experience.
We had a great time!!! We saw many sights in Austin we haven’t seen before!! Rooster was an Amazing Road Captain!!! Will definitely recommend to friends/family!!!Melissa P.
Our tour guide was awesome! Very enthusiastic and was knowlegeable about the area. He was funny, and had great charisma :)
I am a true native Austinite and this was one of the FUNNEST adventures I have done in this city. I was sad when it was over. We are definitely going back and doing this again. Maybe the night tour next time. Our gang leader (ride captain) was Tyler. Wow! Right guy for the job. He was SO funny and made this the best experience. Thank you Tyler and Biker Gang!!!
