We had a ton of fun. Perfect for taking out of town guests on a tour of Austin. I live in Austin, but I learned lots of new facts and saw new places I didn’t know where there. This is a great way to see Austin.
Joe, our Biker Captain, was awesome! He had great patience in teaching me quickly how to ride and stop the bike. He kept great watch over us throughout our ride. He was very knowledgeable and informative! THANKS FOR AN AMAZING TIME!
It was a blast riding the bikes around town and seeing different sections of the city. Our guide, Pat, was super cool and fun. We were jammin’ along to reggae music. Only friendly note would be... we would have liked to have learned more stats and facts about Austin and fun things to do around town. Thank you for the ride!
Do NOT miss this fantastic experience. Patrick was our guide and he was great! The tour we took led us to many of the downtown attractions. We even stopped off for a great cup of coffee!
Highly recommend. Major fun and a great city tour. We had a group of 10 family members with 7 Bikes. The bikes are really cool - Easy to ride and control but feel more like a motorcycle than a bicycle. Great to cruise around like a "gang" owning the streets. Our tour guide was great, he made it fun and interesting and we covered a surprising amount of ground. Highly recommend this tour to all group types, from couples to large groups as a cool way to see and experience the city. We were also able to hike our minor children comfortably and safely with us which is a real plus for families.
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!
We were referred to Your Biker Gang's Fat Tire tours by an employee of mine. On a couples trip in late April we participated in the Food and City tour. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather and we loved our tour with Patrick. The bikes are easy to handle and safe to ride. We got to see many parts of the city and we really enjoyed ourselves. I think the tour was 2 hours and it could have been twice as long. Highly recommend this if you are looking for something "different" to do while in Austin.
This is just the best way to get a feel for the city! It was great fun picking our "biker names," gearing up for the ride, hopping on the bikes and establishing our presence on the roads of Austin! We had a blast!... "Rooster" was the best guide... very fun and funny, very knowledgeable about the city, and very attentive to make sure we were all comfortable and safe! If you're in Austin... Do this!
We had a great time with Patrick on our "biker gang" tour of Austin. He was fun and very accommodating for pictures. We had hoped we would have seen more of the sights of Austin. Much of the tour was through a more run-down part of the city.
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
Definitely do this!!! What a blast we had and Tyler was a hilarious, engaging and informative guide. We loved every minute of our ride!
