Brunch, With a Side of Pedaling
A full 1-hour-45-minute HandleBar ride through downtown Detroit, paired with I Wanna Brunch with Somebody — the DJ-powered sing-along brunch at Clubhouse above Checker Bar. Ride first, brunch after. Or brunch first and roll it off.
Pedal, then brunch
- Ride the heated Mobile Igloo through downtown
- Dedicated BarHandler as driver and host
- Photo stops and your playlist on the stereo
- Brunch and drinks ordered at Clubhouse, on your own tab
Brunch, then pedal
- Start with the DJ and the sing-along at Clubhouse
- 20-minute gap to get from the table to the bike
- Then 1 hour 45 minutes of Detroit on the HandleBar
- Brunch and drinks ordered at Clubhouse, on your own tab
Where it all happens
Everything starts and finishes at Clubhouse above Checker Bar — 124 Cadillac Square, right in the middle of downtown.
The bike loads outside, the brunch runs upstairs, and your BarHandler keeps the whole thing moving. Plan on arriving at least 25 minutes early to park and get checked in.
Good to know
Food and drinks are separate. Your HandleBar booking covers the ride. Brunch and cocktails are ordered at Clubhouse and are not included.
Drinks on the bike: beer, wine, seltzers and canned cocktails are fine. No glass, cans and plastic only. We bring a cooler that holds about 80 cans.
Weather: we ride rain or shine. The igloo is heated and enclosed, and if anything severe rolls in we’ll reach out the morning of.
Saturday slots at 10:30 AM and 12:35 PM
Brunch rides run Saturdays all winter, plus select Sundays. Seats are sold per rider, so two people or sixteen both work — the calendar shows the exact times and what is still open.
Taking the whole bike
Book all 16 seats and the bike is yours for the ride — birthdays, bachelorettes, and Sunday crews do this constantly.
Planning something bigger, like a company brunch or a full buyout of both bikes? Text us at 586-960-5851 and we’ll build it out.
The brunch itself
I Wanna Brunch with Somebody is Detroit’s DJ-powered sing-along brunch — a live DJ, a room that knows every word, and a menu built for a slow weekend morning.

Brunch questions
Is brunch included in the price?
No. The $29.99 covers your seat on the HandleBar and the ride. Food and drinks are ordered separately upstairs at Clubhouse and go on your own tab.
What if we only have two people?
That works. Seats are sold per rider, so you can book anywhere from 1 to 16. If your group does not fill the bike, other riders may book the open seats.
Can we bring our own drinks on the bike?
Yes. Beer, wine, seltzers and canned cocktails are allowed. Please leave the glass at home — cans and plastic only. We provide a cooler that holds about 80 cans.
How early should we get there?
At least 25 minutes before your slot, including time to park. It is a public ride, so we cannot hold the bike if you are late.
What happens if it rains or snows?
We ride rain or shine, and the igloo is heated and enclosed. If there is thunder or lightning, we reach out the day of to talk through options like a rain check.
Can we cancel or move our date?
Our cancellation policy runs 7 days out. Full terms are on the checkout page, and anything unusual you can text us at 586-960-5851.
