These are fun to drive, easy to drive & are a great way to tour the downtown area of Austin! We had family in town from Wisconsin & this was an amazing interactive way to get everyone around! Tyler, our tour guide, added fun and energy to the tour! If you're weary of not knowing how to ride this bike, don't be. We all learned the day of and were on the road in 15 minutes!
My husband and I took this tour, after we had done a few Segway tours in other towns. The guide provided good instruction and fun facts of the cool things that we were stopping to see.
Absolutely the best way to see Austin. My brother, cousin and I rode around town and had a blast today!
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
Patrick was an awesome guide, so fun and knowledgeable. You can tell he loves his job and really goes above and beyond to make sure everyone has an awesome time!
This was one of the best downtown weekend activities we have ever done as a family! We booked our tour on a Sunday and took both kids with us. This was a dual father son birthday present and we all had a blast. Our guide was great and the enjoyment and experience we had was equally matched by what we spent for the tour. The motor bike was easy to maneuver and thankfully there is a good amount of practice before getting on the road. The stops along the tour were awesome and our guide provided a thorough and interesting commentary of Austin and Texas facts along the way. This is absolutely worth every penny and an experience you won't forget! I would recommend definitely checking weather conditions and dressing comfortably.
Best Experience and Tour GUIDE EVER!!! Our guide was Patrick and he was phenomenal from beginning to infinity and beyond!!!! He called to confirm assuring us the tour we had and gave us more information concerning parking and food trucks. Upon arrival, we signed waivers and put on our helmets and proceeded to some safety discussions and riding. Before we knew it, we were on our tour with plenty of Photo stops, great food, and flexibility for the things we wanted to see. He was Amazing with my two boys 12 & 13. Hands downs BEST TOUR GUIDE EVER! He was an extremely knowledgeable guy and a pleasure riding with. Safety was impressive! I can’t believe how much fun my family had! This HAS to be a to-do on Everyone’s list. The bike seemed easy to operate. These bikes were so cool our family may invest in some. Great Great Great TIME! Memories for a lifetime. Whenever we return to Austin, I pray Patrick is still there GREAT GUY!!! The building was simple, Parking on site was limited, BUT FREE and the bathroom was not the Sheraton ️BUT your there to ride Bikes and That By Far was Phenomenal. More
What a blast.Great way to see Austin.Great history lesson.Did not want it to end.Cope was full of great insights.
My mom and I visited Texas on vacation. We’re from Ohio. We travelled from Dallas to Corpus Christi and back, and Your Biker Gang was the most fun thing we found! Cope was our guide and he was great. We got a better look at down town Austin and he pointed out a lot of cool street art and gave us background information on some of the really cool buildings. My favorite was the “narwhal” building. We ate at Torchys Tacos and it was DAMN GOOD, just like the sign said. I would definitely sign up for this again and to anyone who has never been to Austin, check them out! You’ll have a blast!!!

This tour is a fun way to see Austin. Looks intimidating to ride but it is easy after a few minutes of practice in the parking lot. Our guide Patrick was super upbeat and fun touring us through the main parts of downtown Austin. He's extremely knowledgeable too. Would ride again and would definitely recommend!
We had a ball and will do it again. A super fun way to spend a hot evening in Austin, Our guides were terrific and we learned about a few cool sites in Austin we didn't know about- (we live here). Would highly recommend.The electric mini-bikes are easy!
