Coffee & Cruising Bike Tour: Lost Motels and Lawyer’s Row

April 17 @ 8:30 am - 10:30 pm
$45
Bikers with RTC bikes on the NPF Coffee + Cruising: Lost Motels + Lawyer's Row

Hop on your bike and take a ride back in time!

This 90-minute bike tour will take you on a scenic cruise through downtown Las Vegas, where neon signs once lit the way for honeymooners and high-rolling tourists. From 1920s bungalows to 1960s motels, we’ll explore how the heart of Vegas has transformed—and how adaptive reuse is giving these historic gems a second life.

Along the way, you’ll discover:
☕ The homes of important early Las Vegans and get a glimpse of the city’s early architectural charm

🏨 Mid-century motels and signs from the golden age of tourism

🏛️ The flashy ‘50s and ‘60s, when motels, neon signs, and the rise of tourism began shaping the Vegas we know and love today

🔁 The art of adaptive reuse—where past meets present in the coolest ways

Grab your helmet (and maybe a coffee), and let’s cruise through Vegas history, block by block! RTC will provide you with a bike if you need one.

🚲2 hour guided bike ride through Fremont motels and Lawyer’s Row
