Great tour, very knowledgeable road captain, smart idea, super safe, amazing city and a lot of fun for all!
I came to Austin for the weekend with my parents and my cousin, and the first thing we did was do the electric mini bike tour. Patrick and Justin were so much fun! They taught us about the major spots in the city, played fun music and took great pictures. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone with decent balance who is visiting Austin. And even if you’re a little bit scarred or unsure, they are very accommodating. For example, my mom was unable to ride her own bike, so she ended up riding with Justin and had as much fun as the rest of us.
We took some of our top customers and we all had a blast! Great way to see Austin in a few hours. Peanut and Rooster were very knowledgeable about the city of Austin and took great care of us!
Tour guide was super enthusiastic (but not too much) and fun to work with. Knowledgeable about the area and easy to work with. A lot of fun!
I booked this as something fun to do while visiting my 25 yr old son for the weekend. Was looking for an activity that he would enjoy doing too, while giving me a nice overview of downtown Austin. We did the 9am tour on a Saturday in June, which was perfect. It hadn't gotten hot yet, and there wasn't much traffic. Our guide Tyler was great - a perfect mix of knowledgeable, enthusiastic and silly.
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
What a fun way to see Austin!! Our guide let us have quite a bit of input in where we went, and we ended up seeing some great sites throughout the city.
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.
What a fun way to see the city! Cope, our guide, was excellent! Highly recommend this tour. The most fun city tour I’ve ever experienced
We came to Austin for a bachelor party and we planned Your Biker Gang as our kick off into the weekend. It couldn't have been any better. Tyler was the most amazing, energetic, sassy guide you could have ever asked for. He made the entire experience 100x better.The trip itself was amazing, personable and tons of fun. Tyler was extremely knowledgeable of the city and catered the entire tour based on the places he felt we should see vs. the experience of the people that had already been to Austin. Will definitely be coming back!
My son and I rode the electric bike Austin tour yesterday. Patrick was knowledgeable and friendly and we got to see a lot of Austin. It’s a lot of fun for 2 hours. I’d give it 5 stars without the accident.Be careful though, these bikes can slip out from under you on loose gravel. This happened to me after visiting graffiti park. Heading down a steep hill, my bike slid out on some gravel and down I went. My knee is hurt and I have some pretty severe scrapes. It would have been great for us to go single file down the hill, but that wasn’t the guidance from our guide. Your biker gang should really take that part of the tour out of their route. It didn’t appear that Patrick had a first aid kit on him for such occurrences. I was offered two moist towelettes and band aids to hold me over until we got back to their location 10 mins away.I suggest you be very careful and consider the insurance and keep to the middle of the lanes away from debris on the roads. Fun time, but the bikes are heavy and can slip out on you on loose gravel. More
