The "bike" seats, known as saddles, are dreadfully uncomfortable. As an athlete who cycles, saddles for this type of situation should be wide and well-cushioned. You'll mostly just sit on them and socialize or view the scenery. We had to stand, as most passengers ended up doing. The saddles are old, hard and not ergonomically designed for this scenario. Even the hard metal stools were uncomfortable because of the vibrations of the vessel. Bring your own cushion! OTHERWISE, the operators were super friendly and knowledgeable about the river and city. So fun and personable! Recommend this trip, but replacing the saddles (bike seats) should happen ASAP! Supply vinyl covers to protect them from rain, even during excursions. The company would prosper by making this small investment in modifications.
