Check out this awesome new way to rent bikes all across the U.S.
www.RentaBikeNow.com
This easy to use website lets you pick your location, your bike, and YOUR ride. Millions of people around the globe ride bicycles. Historically, this joy on two wheels would come to a screeching halt when you traveled because the equipment was too difficult to transport. The dedicated cyclists would turn to rentals, however there was always the problem of finding a good bike and knowing where to ride in an unfamiliar place. For the most part, there was no such thing as advanced reservations. If you found a place that rents, you pretty much just walked in and chose from what was available. Alas!, RentaBikeNow is the answer to the problem.
