Buffalo Pedal Tours

We had such a great time on the historic bike tour of Buffalo with our guide Brad. It was part of our 50th high school reunion and would recommend it to any group interested in seeing some of the sites in downtown Buffalo.

B Sides Ride

This is a new way to see Buffalo. Some history, health (the biking), and some community, while learning (and singing, and hearing a poem) about subtle sites in Buffalo’s history—interesting for citizens and visitors alike. I enjoyed all aspects of it. I’ll be interested to...More

The Ukelele interludes are special

Last minute pleasant surprise!

I signed up for this bike tour at the last minute as the title was intriguing and I had a free morning. Buffalo has no shortage of interesting architecture, landmarks, and neighborhoods to tour, but this tour had such a unique twist by going for...More

Great Perspective on Buffalo

Just had a great time riding with Marc all around town and learning more about the city's past. This tour is special because Marc's sharing his research and lesser known aspects of Buffalo's "alternative" culture of activism. We covered places, stories and art about anti-war...More

Aww, thanks so much, John! Glad you and your daughter enjoyed the ride. That's wonderful to see multigenerational groups attend and enjoy the tour. That truly makes all this work super rewarding :) We'll be regrouping after this season and consider how to expand next....More

Fun and interesting cultural tour of Buffalo

B-Sides is exactly as the title advertises--the alternative history of Buffalo. You can tell that Marc really cares about researching and sharing the lesser-told narratives of the city. The tour is around 8 miles long, and the bike riding in between the tour stops is...More

Thank Nina D

Aww thanks, Nina! It was great having you on the tour and appreciate the review. Will have to regroup after this season and consider how to expand next – an East Side ride that delves into the Polish/ German/ African American history would be interesting! Hope...More

Historical Tour

Marc is very polite and knowledgeable about the history of the City of Buffalo. His groups are small so you do not have to struggle to hear his presentations. I truly enjoyed the ride and the information.
