Adventure Tips
Wear your helmet at all times
Safety first—helmets are included with rentals and are required to protect you on busier city streets.
Start early to avoid midday heat
Austin’s sun can be intense, so riding in the morning keeps you cooler and crowds thinner.
Follow bike lane traffic rules
Stay in designated lanes and obey traffic signals to ensure a smooth and safe ride.
Bring a reusable water bottle
Stay hydrated while you explore; water fountains are available but carrying your own is best.
