Although I am from Austin and all of the spots we stopped out on our tour were familiar to me I still learned some interesting stuff. That's not why I'm giving this review. Riding these "bikes" were a complete blast and the dudes doing the tour were super friendly and know what they are doing! I'll be trying to convince my local friends that we need to do this some time!
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've never ridden a mini bike or scooter so was a bit nervous about this tour but Patrick makes sure everyone practiced in the lot first and felt comfortable. You quickly get used to it. The tour was super fun. Saw some great murals, learned some history, stopped for some awesome donuts at Voodoo donuts, and received good tips on where to go after to explore more food, drinks and sights. Patrick is fun and engaging, he made sure everyone felt welcomed and included. I can't wait to go again!
We saw the great reviews and decided to give it a try and had a blast. Great tour guide (Patrick) gave us a brief but effective training session and we were off! Super fun and easy to ride and saw some really cool sites of Austin.
We booked this in the early part of our Austin trip to get a little layout and introduction to the area. It was SXSW and the town was getting crazy. Our guide gave us some quick lessons, and we were off seeing local sites like Lady Bird Lake and the Willie Nelson Statue. During this trip we rode B cycles, jump scooters, and pedi cabs but this was the most fun. People we encountered would ask where they could rent these. These were for 2 hour tours but it would be fantastic to rent these by the day! 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.
Visiting Austin for our wedding anniversary and the hotel conceirge suggested this as something fun to do. After a few minutes of training and laughing all the way we set out on the town. The guides make this experience, no question, filling the time with interesting facts and tidbits about Austin history. The best part is they do it with humor and make the 2 hours really enjoyable and light. Tyler and the gang have it going on so don’t hesitate to get your swerve on. People all over town were cheering us on and smiling with us! Suggestions are strong use of the horn, smiling, and a little sense of humor. Have fun!! We certainly did!
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!
Jo (our tour guide) was awesome, the bikes were the best to get around the city. Everybody enjoyed this activity!
Your Biker Gang was an awesome experience for my group! The Road Captains were absolutely incredible, and they tailored the tour to our interests. They provided water for the trip and made sure that everyone was drinking plenty to stay hydrated on the ride. They continually took pictures during the ride and had them posted for us within 10 minutes of completing our ride. Riding around town is fun all on its own, but the Road Captains made it so much more entertaining and engaging. Our group was pretty skilled in terms of riding, so we got to hit all of the major spots plus a number of smaller, lesser known ones because we moved pretty quickly. I highly recommend Your Biker Gang for travelers and even those that live in the city. You get a great broad tour, but you also get to see things that even most locals probably don't know about. I can't recommend this enough!
Our guide was knowledgeable and fun. I planned this for my husband’s birthday and we lucked out cause we were the only two riders. Thanks for a great time!
