I thought the Your Biker Gang tour was fabulous! The clubhouse easy to find and extremely welcoming.... with a great Donkey Kong game. The small instructional and practice time were helpful and effective. I thought the balance of stops, info and riding were perfect but most of all our tour guide Tyler aka Grandpa was exceptional. He had a great vibe and definitely wanted to make our tour what we wanted it to be minus the million right hand turns! Ha! This was definitely a tour to remember and be repeated. Thanks Tyler!
Okay, a blast! Of course I love motoring around the city on a mini bike, crossing bridges, drinking espresso coffee by the river, but at first ai was wondering....is this safe? I was bringing my daughter who I let ride alone, and after a few minutes of deep breaths realized how safe Tyler our guide was so after that I realized and had a blast? Of course you should do it, what are you waiting for?!
My sister, mom and I (ages 40 - 67) had so much fun on this tour. Tyler, our guide, was super nice. We got to see so much of Austin up close in just two hours. Highly recommend.
I was in Austin for a limited amount of time. This tour let me see a lot of cool spots that i would have never known about. They let you chose what you'd rather see - between art, nightlife spots, museums, etc. Riding through the city on these fat tire bikes were a lot of fun, we also had some great music playing and it was a beautiful day outside. I would recommend and would go again.
This tour was so much fun. We got some great pictures at the murals. Very safe and plenty of hands on instruction before hitting the road. We had Patrick as a tour guide and really enjoyed his reggae music. People always smile as you pass by. Just do it! You will be so glad you did!
Our tour guide, Joseph, is the best!!! He made the tour lively and interactive. He was very knowledgable of the history of Austin and took us to some great spots to see the city. We also had a great group of people in the group with us that also made the tour exciting. Thank you Joseph and I look forward to my next tour when I visit again!!! Best Tour/Ride Ever!!!!!!!
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
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.
Tour of the city with a stop at some good trucks ( could have lived without) but the tour of city sights was fun and informative. Definitely recommend as an introduction to Austin
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 is hands down the best tour to take when visiting Austin! We had so much fun! It was like getting your first electric car toy when you were a kid at Christmas (Mine was a red Jeep) and now as an adult I got the same feeling with this fat tire electric bike! It was super easy to ride. We took the morning tour which started at 9 AM. Our tour guides Tyler and Cope were amazing! They showed us must see places in Austin and were really knowledgeable about the city. On our tour we saw The capital from afar, drove by the governors house, stopped at graffiti hills, showed us cool buildings and architecture downtown and some awesome art work and sculptures. Most importantly they did a great job keeping everyone safe and together. It’s not easy leading a pack of newbie electric bike riders around the streets of Austin Tx but they made it seem effortless. I highly recommend this and I plan to do this again every time I get near Austin! I really hope this business will open locations in other cities because I would go to them all!! Don’t forget to wear sunblock and sunglasses! And tennis shoes would probably be the best option for this activity.
