A bell tinkles as a bright-red Surrey eases onto the paved riverfront path, its laughter-suffused passengers catching the breeze off the Deschutes. The river doesn’t rush so much as decide — it will curve, cool, and pull your attention toward the basalt cliffs and cottonwoods. Here, at Wheel Fun Rentals in the Old Mill District, you can hand the map to someone else, pick a wheel configuration, and let the town reveal itself at human speed.
