San Francisco is a Bike-Friendly City
E-bikes are an easy, comfortable way to navigate San Francisco and immerse yourself in the city lifestyle. There’s a reason you can find over 20,000 people biking through San Francisco every day—it’s one of the most bikeable cities in the United States. With clearly marked bike lanes and strong bike culture, you’ll feel safe and confident cycling on even the busiest of city streets.
Cycle with Ease on a Quality E-Bike
San Francisco isn’t a flat city, so using a standard, muscle-powered bike can get tiring fast. Dylan’s rents bikes with a motor assist, so you can easily climb hills and cycle long distances. The award-winning Rad Power Bikes have a sleek design and are easy to use, making them the perfect bike for San Francisco. Stop by for a free test ride to see for yourself!
Explore Where Cars & Buses Can’t
Seeing the city by bus or car is fun, but certain areas just can’t be reached. But when you navigate the city by bike, hardly anything is off limits! Explore the pathways of famous parks, take the side streets, and discover the hidden gems not accessible in larger vehicles.
Choose a Convenient San Francisco Adventure
Once you have your bike, there are tons of fantastic bike routes at your fingertips. Dylan’s is conveniently located in North Beach, a short ride from the bike path to the Golden Gate Bridge. We are also just a few minutes from Chinatown, Fisherman’s Wharf, and Union Square.
The Perfect Add-On to a San Francisco Bus Tour
If you’ve already booked a city minibus tour with Dylan’s, adding a bike rental is an easy choice. Once you’ve received an overview of the city on our guided tour, a bike rental is a perfect way to double back on the areas that interested you the most.
Our Favorite Bike Rides in San Francisco
Bike the Bridge
Intermediate
2–4 hours
We will always recommend this San Francisco bike route to locals and visitors alike—everyone should experience biking across the Golden Gate Bridge at least once! Whether you catch the bridge on a clear day for bay views or cycle through the famous San Francisco fog, it will be a one-of-a-kind experience. Once you make it across the bridge, it’s just a few more minutes to the charming waterfront town of Sausalito. With beautiful views and great food options, it’s a perfect spot to take a lunch break to soak up some rays and stretch your legs before heading back into the city!
Golden Gate Park
Intermediate
2–4 hours
You can spend hours uncovering all of the scenery in Golden Gate Park. Take the waterfront bike path to the entrance to enjoy some ocean views, and then explore the inside of San Francisco’s largest park. We recommend taking a break to walk through the oldest glass and wood Victorian greenhouse in the western hemisphere. It houses over 10,000 plants for you to enjoy while more than 800 live butterflies flutter around!
