What’s the best way to experience the Golden Gate Bridge? Take a bike ride across it. With stunning views of the San Francisco Bay and the skyline, the picturesque towns and spectacular views of Marin County await on the other side. A 24-hour bike rental at Blazing Saddles starts at $32 per person and includes a map with self-guided tour options and a ferry ticket back to Frisco. Bonus, you’ll get your harbor tour in, too. You’ll  quickly realize that cycling is a popular activity for many Bay Area residents. Don’t worry if you can’t keep up. Take it easy and cruise the bike path through Presidio National Park across the Golden Gate Bridge and into the seaside town of Sausalito. Notice that micro-climate already warming up. Waterfront dining, art galleries, and shops abound. You can catch a ferry from here, or turn around and bike the bridge back. If you’re up for a full day, though, continue your ride along the trails to the quaint town of Tiburon. You’ll be rewarded with a delicious meal at one of the Bay Area’s most popular spots. Snag a table on the patio of Sam’s Anchor Cafe, and enjoy a leisurely lunch luxuriating in the sunshine and the views before catching your ferry back to San Francisco.
