The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive Early for Fit
Show up 15 minutes before departure to get a proper bike fit and sign the waiver so you don’t miss any riding time.
Bring Photo ID for the Taproom
If you plan to sample beer during the scheduled 30-minute stop, bring valid ID—minors may join on the patio but cannot drink.
Wear Closed-Toe Shoes
Sturdy, closed-toe footwear helps with mount/dismounts and short walk sections through pedestrian blocks.
Watch for Traffic and Pedestrians
Follow your guide’s directions in busy downtown areas and dismount where instructed near stadiums and retail districts.
Local Knowledge

Conservation Note
Stick to paved trails and avoid feeding wildlife; local groups maintain river corridors—use bike racks and dispose of waste to support urban conservation.
Denver grew rapidly after the 1858 gold rush; downtown’s rail hubs and river corridors shaped early commerce and now anchor cultural renewal.
