Description<\/strong>
\nMeet the small bike shop with the huge heart. Alameda Bicycle only has six bikes\u2014total\u2014available for rent (advanced reservations are advised), but this family-run bike shop also sells and repairs bikes, and operates community outreach programs.<\/p>\n

The shop rents out two street cruisers ($25 a day), two road bikes ($40 a day), and two dual suspension bikes ($60 a day). Helmets and locks come free with your rental. Be sure to bring your credit card, as a credit authorization is required for rentals.<\/p>\n
