In 1814, Washington, DC was still just a meager village (only 24 years old as the new nation’s federal capital), and it was nearly wiped out of existence by the British Navy invasion as part of the War of 1812.  Nearly every federal building was burned including the White House and the Capitol Building. Numerous opportunities were missed to avoid the calamity, but something amazing happened that spared DC. Come ride the avenues the Brits set ablaze and hear some of the fascinating stories, acts of heroism, and amazing natural circumstances that kept our beautiful city from total destruction.

For the best possible experience, I prefer at least 24-hour advance notice to plan and prepare your ride. Book earlier to ensure you get your first choice of days and times. Day-of reservations are possible when I’m available. If we’re riding in D.C. and you have a hotel bike or are willing to use Capital Bikeshare, I can roll in as few as 90 minutes. For road rides where you need a bike, four hours is the minimum. The more lead time ahead you can provide, the better (and appreciated).

No bike? No problem!

I partner with D.C.'s premier bike rental business, Bikes To Borrow, to hook you up with classic cruisers, sporty hybrids, and zippy road bikes. Want to try something new? I can also reserve you a quality electric assist or e-bike with the D.C. region's largest e-bike shop, Hybrid Pedals. All bikes are delivered to where you’re staying and picked up when you’re done. Add any of these bikes to your "cart" here and I'll take care of your bike reservation. Carbon Fiber Hybrid

Proportional lightweight design, 7 speeds and 24" wheels make it easy to keep up with other riders. Electric assist or e-bikes are not a free ride. These pedal assist bikes allow you to enjoy your journey with ease and style. Some models like the A2B shown here have a low clearance / step-through frame that makes this a bike accessible to nearly everyone. Cargo Bike for Kids up to 8 yrs

Got two or three little ones with you? Great - let me safely chauffeur them around DC. For several years, I've enjoyed pedaling my twins around DC in our customized family cargo bike. The comfy cushion lined box can carry two children (and with the trailercycle attached I can even pedal three kids!). The super low center of gravity makes this bike super safe - like a Pope-Mobile for kids. They also get to enjoy being up front with an unobstructed view. There is no additional charge - I love pedaling this bike and sharing the fun my own family enjoys with this super cool bike.

Several of D.C.’s most distinctive hotels also have bicycles available for guests, suitable for shorter rides in the city. Capital Bikeshare rentals are included for customers. Whatever your preference, I’m happy to make all the arrangements for you!
