THE SLOWRIDE EXPERIENCE
LET’S CRANK UP THE PARTY!
Steve was a joy to work with. His staff was professional and lots of fun. The bus was decorated for the holiday season which added to the experience. I got loads of positive comments from The Urbana Park District Staff who would all highly recommend Slowride. Such a unique way to see downtown Champaign.
Who knew you could have a BLAST on a Thursday afternoon?! Everyone must try this out. I did the pedal tavern in Nashville (which is wonderful), so Slowride had big shoes to fill and that they did! What a wonderful addition to CU! The Slowride crew was fun & friendly! I’ll be booking again!
So. Much. Fun. You get to see the town and hang out with friends in a new way. They serve your drinks for you and can play music right from your phone’s playlist! We picked up a coworker along the way too. Great way to bond with new coworkers, catch Pokemon and work them legs! It wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be.
FAQs
Slowride is designed to seat 14-passengers. “No passenger shall be allowed to ride the Pedal Bar except in the designated seating area”. With that said, we are limited to 14-passengers only.
There are 10-pedaling seats, plus 2-non-pedaling seats located over the rear axle. The rear non-pedaling bench seat is capable of comfortably seating 3-average to small passengers. The rear seat will only accommodate 2, more mature passengers.
