Sidecar Vineyard Tour of Cass Estate Vineyard

Do I need to wear a helmet?
Yes. There is nothing more important to us than your personal safety! California law does require sidecarists and passengers to wear helmets. However, it is our strict company policy for everyone to wear DOT-approved helmets. We provide (at no additional cost) elegant helmets of all sizes which are maintained in perfect condition. They are cleaned and sanitized after every use.

Are there any physical restrictions?
While we haven't experienced many issues, our sidecars can handle approximately 600 lbs. of total weight, including our guide and passengers. The maximum weight per passenger is approximately 200 lbs. or combined passenger weight of 400 lbs. Also, please note that in order to embark on an adventure with us, every member of your group is required to sign a liability waiver.

Is the sidecar safe?
Yes. Our sidecars are built to North American safety standards and are fully certified by the US Department of Transportation. We strictly abide by the same rules and regulations as any other motorized vehicle traveling on public roads and highways. Sidecar motorcycles have 3 wheels, so they are very safe and stable as compared to standard 2-wheel motorcycles. They are safe for adults and children (8+) alike. Sidecar motorcycles are not fast vehicles; they are built for pleasant cruising, not for high-speed driving. Our tour routes have been carefully planned away from major freeways and we typically will not exceed 25-30mph. Rest assured that your Sidecarists are experienced, certified sidecar motorcycle operators with unblemished driving records, you will be transported safely and responsibly.
