Your health and safety is our top priority
All of our realities have shifted in light of the pandemic and we’re taking extra steps to ensure your wellness, comfort, and peace of mind for all of our guests. Here’s how our policies, processes, and offerings have evolved with the times.
Please note: Dandyhorse’s cleaning and safety procedures exceed relevant Covid-19 guidelines published by the WHO and the CDC. We’re constantly monitoring the situation so we can offer you the safest experience in San Francisco.
How we clean our bikes
Our bikes are thoroughly cleaned after every ride. This includes power-washing with hot water and fully disinfecting all touchpoints (handlebars, top-tube, grips, saddle, front bike bag, etc) using a 99% isopropyl alcohol solution. This means you get the most sanitary bike in the business, one that is likely dramatically cleaner than your bike at home, without the harmful chemical residues found in products like Lysol.
How we clean our helmets
All helmets are fully cleaned and sterilized using a 99% isopropyl alcohol solution inside and out after every ride. We also regularly wash the pads. Again no harmful chemicals and the cleanest helmets in the business.
Hand sanitizing station
We have that liquid gold! Use our touchless pump if you’re ever concerned about cleaning your hands before or after the tour (we have a sparkingly-clean bathroom too so you can wash up with soap and hot water). Your guide also has a bottle of hand-san should you need a touch-up along the ride.
Shop cleaning procedures
We clean our shop thoroughly every day. This includes disinfecting our iPad check-system after every guest, and property cleaning all surfaces (including tables and seating) after every tour group.
Shop air purification
Breathe easy! Our shop is protected by a HEPA filtration system that continuously filters out 99.95% of the germ, dust, and grime particles in the air.
Gloves
Get that extra layer of protection if you need it. We have free, extra-strong gloves for you. Black, latex-free, hypoallergenic, and we have sizes to fit all riders.
Social Distancing & Our Bike Adventures
Our bike adventures naturally allow for proper social distancing in an open-air environment. Biking naturally allows for a bit more space and a truly expansive, head-clearing experience we all need now. We’ve also debuted a slick wireless system so your expert guide can share awesome insights while giving a little bit more space.
