Summary:
I choose this company after emailing several to ensure that my partner's 6'4" height and my need for a step thru bike could both be accommodated. Iride responded right away and allowed for a dialogue to ensure that this was the best fit. We met the van driver just a few steps from where we disembarked and were taken away to a lovely bike ride and short hike. The two tour guides were terrific. One was retired from the US Forest Service and the other on a gap year before college. They were informative, engaging, and at times humorous. We would have liked a longer bike ride (it is 10 miles), but that wasn't an available option and we almost didn't sign up. The 1 mile hike was plenty for us. Really glad we decided to go ahead. It was a lovely outing and we learned a lot about the region. There were riders of different sizes, ages and abilities... two that reported that they hadn't biked in 20 years... everyone appeared to enjoy themselves.

Summary:
Shorter ride than I expected but still a fun time. The guides were great and the bikes were very easy to operate. Beautiful day with Mendenhall Glacier across the bay in a distant view.
