All Colorado Rickshaws feature the best equipment available
for safety and comfort including running lights, safety belts, and
canopies. We lease bike taxis to qualified, licensed and trained independent
drivers on a daily or monthly basis.
Rates
Rental rates range from $250 - $400 per month, or $25 - $75 per day, depending on the event, season or circumstances.
Fares
Passenger fares average $1.50 to $2.00 per block for two people.
Some nights are busier than others; that's part of the unpredictability
of driving pedicabs. New drivers will find that other, more experienced
rickshaw drivers can suggest ways to "sell the ride" and
increase income.

What makes a successful
pedicab driver?
What I like about driving
a pedicab!
If this sounds like a good fit for you, text your name, phone number and email address to 720 629 2599, or contact us by phone
or e-mail to
request an interview and a spot in the next training
class, and get on the road to a fun, adventurous,
and often profitable activity. It's pretty cool to make money while
you're having fun and working out, and showing others a good time.
