All rentals begin and end in our cool bike workshop in the centrally local South of Market neighborhood.

How should I get to your location? Is there parking?

Toggle FAQ

If you are staying locally, we recommend getting dropped off here via taxi, Lyft, or Uber since it’s super easy. We’re also about a 25-minute walk from Union Square hotels.

If you do drive, there is free parking 2 blocks away at Costco. Here are directions to the lot. If you’d rather, there is secure parking at our location in the L7 garage.
