Review of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge bike rental, with route ideas, e-bike advice, costs, ferry tips, and practical planning details.
“This company is great. I rented an e bike for the day and even though I was nervous having never been on one, the staff was great at giving all the instructions I needed. They even changed the seat to a softer one so I would be more comfortable. I rode the bike from blazing saddles down to fort point, across the Golden Gate Bridge to the marine mammal center, and then to the ferry in Sausalito and the battery was still half charged. That was a concern of mine being I let the bike do a lot (most 😊) of the work. Blazing Saddles even gives you a ticket…”

Review of Central Park bike rental in New York, with bike, helmet, lock, map, flexible hours, family gear, pricing, and practical tips.
“de fiets zelf was ok, gemakkelijk om central park te verkennen, maar het verhuurkantoor was een ramp. Chaos tot en met. Aanschuiven in rijen, om dan te horen dat het enkel voor return was, terwijl dit nergens aangegeven staat. ID wordt gewoon in algemeen doosje gestoken, dus bij terugkomst moet men het jouwe eruit zoeken, dus kans op verlies. De mannen die de fietsen gaven, waren zeer onvriendelijk. Vooral de organisatie in dit bureau was ver te zoeken, een manager zou welkom zijn.”
