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.
IF YOU’RE in Austin take this tour!!!! The guide is awesome and knowledgeable. I would do this tour over and over again!
This experience is a blast! Where else can you lean back on your own fat boy and cruise the City without a license to ride? Granted, they top out at 20mph and your guide takes pretty good care to make sure you don't end up in crazy bad traffic.We went out on the morning trek with Justin. He did a great job teaching us the basics before we hit the road. It is important to remember this is a 'tour', not just a ride. Consequently, you make several stops during the tour to dismount, chat and take pictures. In addition, you only move as fast as the slowest rider. Unfortunately, they don't subscribe to the theory of Survival of the Fittest.Justin did a fine job explaining little factoids about the city as we tolled around. Our group was most interested in scenery and music, so those are the sites that he spent most of his time on. The only regret I have is I would have liked the option of cruising around a bit on my own at the end and just letting the bike fly down the streets. I think 20 miles per hour may be understating the performance of these beasts, but we never really had a chance to find out. More
Our group of 8 adults (6 drivers and 2 riders) recently had a blast touring downtown Austin with Patrick, a former elementary school teacher turned biker dude. After making sure we all felt comfortable on our bikes before heading out, he said his three goals for the day were safety, education, and fun, and he exceeded our expectations in every area.In addition to the standard Austin downtown landmarks, he also pointed out lesser-known sights including a flock of Mexican parakeets sporting bright green plumage as well as their incredible public library, which we visited at his suggestion after the tour was over. (Best library ever! If you have time, go check out the views from the gorgeous outdoor lounging area at the top of the building as well as the innovative features of the actual library, including a kiosk that will dispense random reading material based on the amount of time you have to read. Wow!)The Voodoo Donuts stop halfway through the tour was a well-timed and delicious break, and the cooler bags full of ice-cold water he provided at the YBG location came in handy. Besides being a knowledgeable tour guide, Patrick is also a great photographer, and he captured the day in numerous pics (group and individual ones) to help us remember this wonderful experience. Since our accommodations for the week were actually in San Antonio, we only spent one day in Austin, and I can’t think of a better introduction to the city than cruising around it with Patrick. Don’t think twice – BOOK THIS TOUR!
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.
My family took the tour during SXSW week. Everyone in the group felt like the tour was awesome and would do it again on the next visit! The tour guide was full of energy, was funny, whipped us around town safely/efficiently, and stopped for pictures/info at cool sites.
You guys are awesome - a fun way to see som of the sights in Austin. Would highly recommended to anyone.
This was the most fun that I've had in a long, long time! I had a group of friends come into town to celebrate my birthday. I live here and know Austin, but thought it would be a great way for them to see town. It definitely was but the whole thing was so funny overall. We all got such a kick out of it and our guide, Cope, was awesome! He had a lot of patience with us ladies and even stopped for coffee with us as it was colder than expected. I highly recommend this tour ..... it's so much fun!!!!
Our tour guide was super accommodating. We had to change our plans a couple of times due to the unpredictable weather and they were more than happy to change them according to our schedule. Very knowledgeable about the city and super fun! Thank you!
By far, the highlight of our weekend getaway was driving these bikes around town touring the city. They are very easy to get used to and the guys at Your Biker Gang are very helpful and very nice people! Will definitely be back and I recommend 100% if you are planning a trip to Austin!
There's no need to know how to ride a motorcycle, if you can ride a bicycle, you can do this + they'll teach you at the beginning how to properly ride it.
