Party bike questions, answered

Sixteen, max. Ten pedal stations, five seats on the lounge bench, and one spot in the middle for whoever's running the bar. Everyone rotates through — nobody pedals the whole two hours unless they want to.

Six or seven pedalers, depending on how much pedaling your group is realistically going to do. Below that the bike won't move well. The price is the same regardless of headcount, so smaller groups just pay more per person — or look at a mixer tour.

Easier than it looks. There's an electric motor assisting the whole time, and we cruise between 5 and 8 mph. The bike weighs what a cargo van weighs but you're not the only engine. People show up worried about this and finish the tour asking for another lap.

Yes, and it's loud. The stereo pairs with any Bluetooth device — hand your phone to whoever has the best taste in your group. If nobody wants the job, the driver runs it.

Afraid not. The bike needs a full crew to get from point to point, so tours start and end at a designated spot with the group that booked it. But say hi.

$360 Monday through Thursday, $460 Friday through Sunday. That's the whole bike for two hours, not a per-person rate. Full pricing and policies here.

Pay in full when you book, or hold your date with a 20% deposit ($72–$92) and settle the rest on the day of — cash, or charged to the card you booked with.

Yes. Seats are $35 Sunday to Thursday, $40 Friday and Saturday, at 3:00, 5:30 and 8:00 PM every day, plus 12:30 on weekends. It's the same two-hour, three-bar ride, and you share the bike with whoever else booked. Six riders minimum; under that we move you to another time or refund you.

12:30 PM, 3:00 PM, 5:30 PM, 8:00 PM and 10:30 PM, seven days a week. The 8:00 and 10:30 weekend slots book out first.

A 16-person vehicle with a bar down the middle and pedals for everyone around it — part bike, part bar, all one moving party. Ours is a bike bar in Houston specifically, built for pedaling around Midtown and Montrose with a sober driver steering while everyone else pedals, drinks and picks the next stop.

Same thing, different name. Depending on where you're from you might call it a party bike, a pedal party, a pedal bar, a bar bike, a pedal pub, a beer bike or a bicycle bar — they're all the same idea: a group vehicle you pedal between bars. Whatever you search for it as, this is that, just built and run in Houston.

Wondering whether a party bus or a walking crawl would suit your group better? Here's an honest side-by-side.

Every tour starts and ends at 302 Tuam St, Houston, TX 77006, including the mixers and any Midtown & Montrose tour where you swap in a Downtown, EaDo or 3rd Ward stop. You end where you started, so leave your car and come back to it. Parking details here.

Three bar stops, about twenty minutes at each, with the riding in between. You pick the bars or your driver picks them. That's it — no script, no forced activities, nobody making you do a group cheer.

Please do. On the Midtown route we regularly hit Vida Garden, Koe Wetzel's Riot Room, Medellin, Reset, 77 Degrees, Jethro's, Cecil's Pub, Belle Station. The bar guide says what each one is like. Somewhere else in range? Ask.

A cooler, ice, drinks in cans or plastic, snacks, water — bring more water than you think — decorations if you're decorating, and a playlist. The full packing list is here.

Yes. All passengers must be 21 or older, no exceptions, and drivers check IDs.

Yes, and you should — it's cheaper than buying at every stop. Full-size cooler is fine.

No. Cans, plastic and resealable containers only. Absolutely no glass, and we're not flexible on this one — a broken bottle on a moving bike full of open-toed shoes is the one thing that reliably ruins a night.

We ride rain or shine — there's a full canopy. We only cancel for actually unsafe conditions: lightning, flooding, severe storms, hurricane weather. If we cancel, you get a reschedule or store credit. The full weather policy is on the pricing page.

Every rider signs a waiver. Do it online before you arrive and you'll be rolling fifteen minutes sooner.

Our drivers have an ejector seat button. (They don't. But the booking party is responsible for everyone they bring, and a tour can be ended without a refund for dangerous behavior, property damage or ignoring the driver. Look after each other and this never comes up.)

Not required, always appreciated. Your driver is steering a 16-person vehicle through Houston traffic for two hours while sober. Cash at the end is the norm.
