Most riders begin by heading west along the bay, passing areas such as Fisherman’s Wharf and riding out towards Palace of Fine Arts . The route is designed to avoid heavy traffic where possible and uses well-established cycling corridors. From here, the ride continues through Crissy Field, where open paths and shoreline views provide one of the best approaches to the Golden Gate Bridge. Crossing the bridge itself is done via the designated cycling access, with time to stop at viewpoints and take in views across the bay, city skyline and Pacific coastline. Wind and weather can vary, so riders are encouraged to allow time and adjust pace accordingly. Once across the bridge, a mostly downhill ride leads into Sausalito , known for its waterfront paths, cafés and houseboats. You can explore the town briefly before boarding the ferry back to San Francisco.
