He was mindful of safety, very patient as we learned how to ride the segways, and was super knowledgeable. He was given an extra challenge as a large music festival was in town. He made the necessary adjustments and ensured that the tour was still fun and interesting. I highly recommend the tour. Ask for Jack as a tour guide if you want someone who is fun, professional, and knowledgeable of Chicago. The segways are tricky to get used to but once you've had some practice time (included as part of the tour), it gets easier and more intuitive. Great company that responded to email questions and was very proactive with communication!

My grandparents called me right after the tour and said how "this was the best trip they have ever been on!" Second City Tuk Tuks was a big part of that. I won't use anyone else when I am in Chicago. Thank you Second City and Alex!

This will be my third year as a three day rider for CowaLunga. As someone who has ridden in other…read moremulti-day charity rides, I can attest that this one is top notch! There are routes available for all levels. Do as little as 18 miles or ride all three days. You will feel an amazing sense of accomplishment at the end of a 190 mile bike ride. All routes are great, but I recommend considering the 2 or 3 day option. With a little training, it is an attainable challenge for even beginning riders. It is a well-supported ride. You will have fully stocked rest stops along the route, SAG vehicles always checking on you, and medical staff available should you need it. If you choose to do 2 or 3 days, your registration fee includes lodging. The first stop being in Lake Geneva at Conference Center Point and the second overnight being at the University of Wisconsin Whitewater. You will have a bed! You don't have to camp, sleep on air mattresses, or pay extra for a hotel. Your registration also includes two meals each day. The route is well marked with interesting places to stop along the way. And the minimum fundraising commitment is not daunting - it is very achievable. Spend 3 days riding your bike in the summer warmth while riding up into scenic Wisconsin, all while raising money for healthy lungs and clean air........how can you go wrong!

Danny and Chuck and the bike I requested ready to go when I arrived, gave me a very helpful overview of the bike's controls and modes and then turned me loose. In and out in 10 minutes and they even gave me a frozen bottle of water to throw in my pack. Given the temps this weekend in the upper 80s I was super thankful to have that a few hours later. Bike was great, I am 6' and 155 pounds so not the biggest guy but I had no problem putting 400 miles on it over a few days on highways and in city traffic. Great ride. Drop off was a cinch as well, even quicker than check out. I can't wait to come back and rent again from these guys! One of the best Eagle Rider locations I've been to. Highly recommend!!!

I feel like I got sold unneeded liability insurance - I thought they said it was included in the VIP insurance package I bought. Several people including me did not get the bike they requested. Plus the Street Glide I got had a horrible windscreen that had bad distortion in the top third - very annoying and dangerous. It also did not have a heel shifter that they come standard with. The place seemed overrun by two tour groups plus a third small group renting bikes. Not the personal service we had received for previous ER tour pick ups.

I used the Eagle Rider website to reserve the Harley motorcycle and picked the bike 30 minutes later. Employee Danny Brown had the Street Glide ready to go. Danny gave a good overview of all the bike features, helped me pair my phone with the Bluetooth stereo on the bike, and even provided some direction to get me to where I wanted to ride. I would highly recommend renting a motorcycle from him and will probably rent next time I am in town. Photo is of the bike while on a ride along Lake Michigan .

I do a lot of research before I purchase large ticket items and I thought that by having a lot of different rental options I could narrow my new motorcycle purchase down. The reason I still have not purchased a motorcycle is that the service at my local Eagle Rider Facility has been exceptional. Danny Brown, the manager, has always been exceptional with his communication. If he can accommodate a last minute rental request he will do what he can to assist. If my first choice is not available he will work to get me something to ride. With that said all of the Eagle Rider Rentals are top quality newer model bikes. This along with the fact that I don't have to detail a bike or store a bike is why I keep coming back season after season. Thanks Danny for the great experience. Dirk Hoerr Oak Park, IL

If you like my reviews, consider "following" my profile for reviews all across the SF Bay Area . Why "follow" someone? It causes the person you follow's reviews to tier to top when you pull up a business. I find this very handy when researching venues. Rod's Review grading scale explained. Essentially I personally base it on the likelihood of a return visit and I try to be stingy with 5 star reviews since they should be "special" in my eyes. Price/Value also play a role obviously but there are $ and $$$$ littered across my grading scale. 5 stars - "I'll go out of my way" (approx 6 % of my reviews) 4 stars- "If I was in the area I'd go here and would recommend", (approx 38% of my reviews) 3 stars "Maybe if was nearby", (approx 37% of my reviews) 2 stars -"Would likely not return, Only if you want to go", (approx 16% of my reviews) 1 star -"No thanks, even if I was hungry", (approx. 3 % of my reviews)
