Mission

Redefining What a Bike Tour Can Be

If Webster’s Dictionary ever adds "Mural Ride," it’ll probably say: A wildly fun, locally led bike tour that showcases San Antonio's street art, celebrates its culture, and connects people to the soul of the city.

That’s the mission — to change the way people experience San Antonio. We don’t just roll past murals; we tell the stories behind the walls, highlight the artists who painted them, and show you the neighborhoods where art, culture, and history collide.

We believe that bikes make cities better, art makes people feel something, and the best tours make you feel like you’re hanging out with an old friend — not sitting through a lecture.

We’re here to shift what tourism looks like in San Antonio: more local voices, more color, and way more fun.

Story

Where the Adventure Begins

Mural Ride started the way most good things do — with a few friends, some bikes, and a deep love for the city. What began as casual cruises through downtown San Antonio to admire local murals soon turned into something more.

Brian’s knack for spotting hidden street art — even tiny, two-inch guerrilla pieces most people missed — evolved into a mission: showcase the art, the artists, and the neighborhoods shaping San Antonio’s creative identity.

As the rides grew, so did the connections. Brian began building relationships with local muralists, getting the inside scoop on new pieces, and weaving their stories into every tour.

Today, Mural Ride is more than a bike tour — it’s a movement powered by community, culture, and the belief that the best way to experience San Antonio is on two wheels, one mural at a time.
