    Bike Rentals

    Hello All,

    Considering changing up the way I attend the Russellville rally due to my free time getting a little crowed as we move into the fall. Previously I was going to bike both ways from the north east which would be a couple weeks at least....more likely three. Now considering flying down which saves the road time and actually a significant amount of dollars but just as importantly frees up some time for some other fall activities like moose hunting.

    Has anybody used Eagle Rider bike rentals or is anyone aware of another bike rental option down that way.

    I was speaking to Eagle Rider and there are machines available in Memphis which would be great.

    Appreciate any input that folk may contribute.

    I believe Eagle rider has a office in Atlanta, and you can rent a goldwing, at least they did a couple years ago.

    Probably not very cheap. Wife and I are heading to Reno for our 30th. I wanted to rent a bike for a ride around Lake Tahoe. HD dealer there has them for $149 a day with a $2000 deposit. Think we will just stay on 4 wheels.

    Thanks for the feedback.

    Quite a few of the reviews online were less than positive. I am going to phone the Nashville outlet later today and have a talk with the staff there and see how it goes.

    Pretty much the only way I will be able to do the Russellville trip at this point. Hopefully I can get a warm fuzzy feeling about the whole thing.

    That might be worth the $149.00 at Lake Tahoe (usually that would be too much money since I ride every day). I have been there a few times and it is beautiful. That would be a great place to cruise around on a bike.

    Yes I've used Eagle Rider a few of times. Yes some sites do have Goldwings. They run around $125 a day. I have always gotten good service from them.
