Pick Your Path - Our Rides and Videos
 
San Francisco and Northern California offers bike riders the most diversity in rides!

Relax and see the city up close and personal while exploring its many “back road” gems. Tour through the Presidio which once protected the Golden Gate and then over to Golden Gate Park and Ocean Beach. Bay City Bike staff can offer suggested points of interest and “not to miss” city trails.

For a more challenging ride head up to the “home of mountain biking,” the Marin Headlands and take in the views from Mt. Tamalpais. On your return don’t forget to pick-up an “I Biked the Bridge” souvenir T-shirt. You’ve earned it!
