About

Bicycle shop in the New Orleans French Quarter. Bicycle accessory & bike sales, service, rentals & tours.

Story

Hurricane Katrina's toll was the genesis for our bike shop. It was an event that causes one to evaluate their life and whether what they're doing is making a difference.

Before Katrina, there was a bike shop in the French Quarter but the owner had died. I felt that the best way to continue sharing the fun and satisfaction that comes from cycling was to start a new bike shop. So RideTHISbike began doing business from a brick and mortar store in the French Quarter.

While many of our customers are locals, RideTHISbike caters to visitors as well as online shoppers across the country. Our Brompton and Montague foldng bikes are quite popular; however, we sell and service all types of bicycles including beach cruisers, mountain bikes, street bikes and racing bikes.

In addition to bike sales and service, RideTHISbike offers bike tours and bike rentals. To maximize your enjoyment, an assortment of bikes are available for use during your tour or rental and all bikes are maintained by our staff of competent mechanics. Our guides are fun, licensed and knowledgeable so expect to have a great time.

My wife and I rented bikes at this excellently located store in the French Quarter and had a great experience exploring the exceptional bike paths and bikable streets just watch out for potholes that New Orleans offers. Larry was very helpful in meeting our needs as far as making appropriate bikes available and then suggesting routes. New Orleans is one of the most bike friendly cities in the US. There are extensive bike paths on each side of the Mississippi River, as well as along Lake Pontchartrain all connected by a greenway with a dedicated bike path Lafitte Greenway There is a very convenient ferry that takes bikes and pedestrians across the river very close to the bike store. Larry was a pleasure to deal with.
My chain snapped on my way back from work and this was the closest bike shop. Although the store was closing, the owner Larry was so gracious to check his stock for a replacement chain. Very friendly and thanks again for helping me out.
This is a fantastic bike shop. I purchased a bike here because I was having trouble finding one short enough for my body second hand. Larry had the perfect bike for me at a reasonable price, and walked me through how to register it on line so I could recover it if stolen. Came in today for a one-month tune up for free, and Larry fixed my issue within 10 minutes. Couldnt recommend this place enough. great service
Wow what an awesome bicycling experience we had buying a bike here. The owner Larry and staff, Josh, are extremely friendly and knowledgeable when it comes to biking and New Orleans. They answered all our questions and even let us test out a few bikes so we could determine which one we liked the most. Due to apartment space restrictions we knew we needed a foldable bike. Not only did we find a great bike we were happy with and met our needs, Larry and Josh helped equip us so we had a safer ride and protect our investment from theft. I see why they have so many great reviews and that is the very reason why I gave them a try. We are a satisfied new bike owner. We considered buying on Amazon, but that is WYSIWYG and where do you go for service later when you need it. You cant beat a place that rents, sells and also provides service. Thank you Larry and Josh for everything!!!
This shop has helped me out more times than I can remember. My bike is my transportation and practically an appendage but I feel safe leaving it in their care. Instead of being overpriced especially in the Quarter, the prices are fair. Also instead of automatically trying to talk me in to something they give me options to chose from. They are down to earth instead of talking down and I really appreciate that. They are laid back professionals and I highly recommended giving them your business
My wife and I were riding our bikes to a parade on Sunday when her tire blew. We had very little hope a bike shop would be open. Not only was he open, he fixed her bike THAT afternoon, and the price was shockingly inexpensive. To summarize, high quality work, quick turn around, and amazing service. Will only go here from now on
My wife and I stumbled upon this place and we're glad we did! Other bike rental places could not accommodate us like Ride THIS Bike did. Their location, availability, and hours were the best. We showed up without a reservation and within 10 minutes we were on wheels. The only thing better than riding a bike is renting it from this friendly, well-equipped outfit.
Extremely rude didn’t hear a word I said to him then said find a closer shop...the worst part is I live far away and only called this one because I’d gotten good service on a unique bike that’s hard to get repaired...definitely won’t be returning again.
We had a great experience renting bikes from this shop. The owner personally made sure the bikes were safe and fit us and my pregnant wife well. He spent time sharing with us best places to bike, eat, enjoy the city's sites. A great overall experience!
Larry is a formidable businesses man and is also a creditable mechanic. His selection of bikes and bike support is quite impressive. He carries fashionable and useful electric bikes to die for and the best foldable bikes in the world: Brompton. Oh! And bells, he also has bells!
