We had a great time renting bikes from the pedaler! We ended up renting for 4 hours, and could’ve gone for longer! Thanks so much for a great experience.

Great way to see and learn about the inner harbor and also what other sites you want to see and other activities you may want to do. The actual bike was an e-bike and very easy and fun to use. Highly recommend!
