Pickled Pedaler
Take control of a one-of-a-kind multi-rider bike in downtown Indianapolis with Pickled Pedaler’s private tours. Pedal through lively streets, hit up local breweries, and bring your own beverages for a memorable group outing.
Pickled Pedaler is a private pedal-powered tour operator based in Indianapolis, Indiana, offering social, BYOB group rides through downtown neighborhoods and brewery districts.
The company operates two distinct private tour formats—Classic Bikes and Next Generation—each designed for groups of up to 14 riders who want a customizable, shared experience. Classic Bikes provide a straightforward way to pedal through Indianapolis while stopping at local hot spots and breweries, with a frosty cooler available to hold guest beverages. Next Generation tours offer the same route flexibility plus onboard entertainment via a karaoke machine, creating a lively atmosphere for celebrations, bachelor or bachelorette groups, and friend outings.
All tours are private bookings that allow the entire pedal vehicle to be reserved by one group, enabling a focused, group-only experience while navigating downtown streets. Pickled Pedaler encourages riders to plan routes in advance, choose preferred downtown destinations, and coordinate with local breweries and hot spots for a seamless stop schedule.
The business operates specifically in Indianapolis, connecting guests to neighborhood landmarks, craft beer venues, and cultural points of interest while maintaining a casual, celebratory tour style. Reservations are recommended for groups that want exclusive use of the pedal vehicle, and guests should bring any beverages they plan to consume during the ride to comply with the BYOB policy. Pickled Pedaler's private tour model makes it simple for groups to celebrate, explore, and experience downtown Indianapolis together. Tours accommodate parties, corporate outings, birthday rides, and casual neighborhood excursions throughout Indianapolis' central districts and brewery circuits.
