Victor Aguilera runs Arepas En Bici, a much sought-after popup, where he spends his days making Venezuelan arepas and biking the extreme hills of San Francisco to provide them to hungry customers. Victor, a long-time Bay Area chef, is likewise an avid cyclist who played competitive bike polo for a number of years. He produced Arepas En Bici to combine these 2 passions while offering San Francisco homeowners with homemade Venezuelan food.

The Chef Who Makes and Delivers His Own Food
This is the definition of hard work and dedication.
This is the definition of settling
Big respect to this guy. Very inspiring – a reminder to follow your passions and always to work hard
Work smarter not harder
What an inspiring person

Mad respect. Much love and happiness my friend. May fortune come easy and plentiful!
Amazing, such an inspiration.
Now that is good service! Maybe this video will help him get a delivery guy 🙂
I could never keep up with this guy. He deserves all the success that comes his way.
As a former road biker, it makes me smile when you said cycling helped turn your life around… I believe it! Entiendo 💓 I think it’s great that you deliver your food… I don’t know quite how you do that and manage to cook as well. Your Arepas look yummy. I wish you well and hope to sample your work at some point in the future… I’d love to go back to SF!
I’m so proud of you, amigo! Continue to do it and do it damn good! Lots of love from your Trinidadian neighbour

Protect Victor at all cost.

I love his story. Very inspiring! I hope he, and his business, continues to do well.
A one gear bike in San Francisco this guy is a BEAST
Solid content from a real guy. Thanks 🙏
A lovely man with a lovely story making some lovely food. Lovely.
I lived across the street from Victor here in Hollywood, Fl in the 2000s before he left to SF. His journey has been nothing short of amazing . Super proud of his accomplishments. He has true passion to his craft and I’m happy he is bringing his culture to the rest of the world. So much more to come. Keep going , Victor!!
