Alen created a wonderful, sightseeing adventure for me during my bike rental experience!

Alen was such a gentleman, he consistently checked back to see that I was doing well while we were touring around the city. He is very smart and knowledgeable about the city's history and fun facts. My first time in renting a bike and I had a wonderful adventure with Alen!
