Really enjoyed the top notch service that Mark provided. He is simply a kind soul and knowledgeable about everything bike related. We rented bikes for a week and he went the distance to make sure we had everything (brand new fitted bikes, extra tubes, tools, pump, etc.) we need to make our trip fun and memorable. Would highly recommend 3rd coast! They are the best in town!!!!

What Our Previous Happy Customers Say
One of the best bike-renting experiences I have had. A friend and I needed to rent bikes for a few days for a trip from Chicago to Milwaukee and beyond. We found 3rd Coast which had the perfect solution: excellent rental rates, excellent bicycles (brand new – we watched him assemble them), extremely friendly personal service from a very knowledgable bike-guy!
