Sausalito is great for
bicycling
, whether for a leisurely ride around town, a trip across the
Golden Gate Bridge or a longer-haul journey. From the ferry terminal, an easy option is to
head south on Bridgeway Blvd, veering left onto East Rd toward the Bay Area Discovery
Museum. Another nice route heads north along Bridgeway Blvd, then crosses under Hwy
101 to Mill Valley. At Blithedale Ave, you can veer east to Tiburon; a bike path parallels
parts of Tiburon Blvd.
