San Antonio Bike Rental?

I have a national meeting in San Antonio in early November, and there is one day with 11:30AM - 5PM set aside for Golf. I would much rather rent a bike and do some kind of loop to explore the area, rather than chase a small white ball with a stick. Does anyone have a recommendation for a bike shop that rents road bikes and could set me up with a decent loop, say 40 - 50 miles?

San Antonio has bike share but if that isn't what you are wanting try these bike shops:
Britton's Bicycle Shop and Bike World (several locations)For places to ride look at San Antonio Wheelmen website and San Antonio Cycling Club.

Thanks texbiker. I'd rather avoid the bikeshare clunkers but I've been known to rent them before, haha. Thanks for the tips on the shops and websites - I'll check them out.

I am late on this. But a great ride is this: from the Alamo, do the Alamo Trail, all the way south past I-10, etc. Stop at a couple of the missions. Then back.

Bike World

Bike World at the Quarry is what you want. If your convention is downtown it's a short Uber ride, & they specialize in quality rental bikes. Plus they can suggest rides right from the shop. Mission Trail is good.
