Bike Rental

Hey RS,

I'm looking to rent a bike to take my Class 6 before my learners expires. Recently got my MSA through PRS, however, my license will expire before the next available appointment date in august. Any one know of any shops that are willing to lend a bike for day? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Call up Vanessa @ PRS. You can borrow/rent their bikes for $60 I believe but not sure if you can rent it for an entire day. If you've taken the course @ PRS, Vanessa should be able to book you priority appointments. Call her and ask!

If above doesn't work try cycle BC, they rent out bikes for 24 hours and are very friendly and great to deal with. Also rent out helmets and gloves for free.. jacket optional $10.

The GS500 they have should be pretty easy to pass the road test with...

Oh man. I remember riding the GS500 @ PRS for my big road ride.

The GS500 would be a great bike for the test but might be tough on the u-turns. Better to stick with the Sherpa.
