One of the best ways to experience Corvallis is by bike. Whether you want to commune with nature on our singletrack mountain bike trails, pedal leisurely on paths winding through town, or just enjoy going from point A to point B, visitors can easily rent bikes to get around.
You can rent bikes at Peak Sports -- or “Peak” as the locals call it -- downtown on 2nd Street. City cruisers for adults and kids, and the oh-so-romantic tandem bike, are available. Peak is a one-stop-shop for accessories: helmets, locks, carriers and flat repair kits.
They have hourly, daily and weekly rates for bike rentals. (They also rent other gear, for skiing to kayaking and more.) Renting requires a credit or debit card and a signed waiver. You can call for reservations or show up at the bike shop during business hours.
Another option for bike rentals in Corvallis is Corvallis Electric Bicycles. They offer rentals of a wide range of electric-assist bicycles for $30 an hour. Their electric bicycles are great for city cruising, particularly for visitors who are looking for an easier way to glide around town.
