So, you’ve booked a tour with us because you heard about us from a friend, or maybe you found us on TripAdvisor (we are #2 of 50 Outdoor Activities in DC, after all!). Or, maybe you’re renting a bike with us for the fiftieth time. Either way, there are some things to know before and after your tour so you can have the best experience. Here they are!
Bike and Roll DC’s fashion design team has been hard at work creating an awesome shirt that we’re sure will land you on the top of “Best Dressed” lists for years to come! (Well, you’ll definitely be on the top of our list ;)…). A wise man/woman once said, “Don’t sell a ‘souvenir’ shirt unless you’d personally wear it to a party.” With that proverb in mind, we were inspired to create a shirt that was the perfect mix of comfortable, fun and cool (just like our tours!) Introducing our hot-off-the-press, 2017 commemorative t-shirts…DRUM. ROLL. PLEASE…..
