If you’re in the mood for some slow, ridiculous fun this weekend or some other day this summer, you can rent a party on wheels that you power with your legs. That’s right, kids. It’s the Pedal Pub!
The Pedal Pub is a 16-passenger bike with a “bartender” who drives while you power the vehicle with pedals. There are five pedaling seats on either side, a non-pedaling seat above the rear wheels, and a bench seat in back that seats three. It’s a mobile BYOB party! The Pedal Pub doesn’t supply food or beverages, but they allow you to bring your own party around town.
There is a variety of routes available as well. There are six different pub crawl routes to choose from, scenic routes to St. Anthony Main/Stone Arch Bridge and Harriet Island in St. Paul, and picnic routes to Nokomis, the Calhoun/Lakes area, and Nicollet Island in Minneapolis. You can also tailgate or choose a custom route. If you do a custom route, keep in mind that anything beyond a 5% or 6% grade incline will probably require you to get out and push! None of the pre-planned routes have ever required pushing, however.
Although pricing varies, if you fill the seats, the Pedal Pub can be rented for about $10 to $12 per hour per person, based on 16 passengers. See the pricing page for more details and conditions at the website.
A party on wheels? Literally. Hey, why not?

I do have to say, this may possibly be the coolest thing that I’ve ever seen in my life!
Cheers.
This is something I have wanted to do before. But, $175/hr. plus tip and it includes no food or drink? I know that you can make it seem like next to nothing when you sell the $/person — but the fact is that I would not want 16 people on it.
$175/hr. just goes beyond what can be considered reasonable.
