Eagle Rider...probably not.

Eagle Rider is one of the most popular and largest bike rental companies around.

This was one of our best options.

They had a lot of bikes to pick from and we could do a one way rental...but all that glitters is not gold.

Below is the info page from Eagle Rider.

This might be a tough sell.

I took the liberty of highlighting the points that I see that may create an issue for us.

I need your thoughts...
