I really appreciate that this tour is so inclusive - you can be a bike enthusiast willing to pedal hard, or someone wanting the bike to do the work, or anywhere between. Either way you will find bicycles that are beautiful, well maintained, comfortable, and quite capable of carrying you around the tour. Your guide will share a wealth of material re the entertaining history and layout of this unique town. If you think this is just another southern small town, think again! Does your town have an equestrian neighborhood, polo fields, or streets laid out with parks between the lanes?
You will mostly be outdoors - there's just one place to go in: the museum. Also, be prepared for being cooler on a bicycle than you would be if walking.
As for the bicycles, the controls are easy to use. I find straight handlebars more comfortable than these backswept bars, but that's a small thing. The bikes take bumps really well and have plenty of power.
Tip: Best place to park is at the far end of The Alley away from Laurens St, where there is a good sized parking lot. The tour meets at this entrance, not Laurens St.
