Been there | Tips http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. Hiring a bicycle, riding over the Golden Gate bridge and around the bays http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21131
You can tailor your day to suit your level of fitness, a group of four of us (two keen cyclists and two not so keen) cycled a gentle 15 miles over the space of a warm February day.

The route can take you across the very impressive Golden Gate Bridge and down a lovely fast hill into the beautiful town of Sausalito. Stop for lunch and get some great sandwiches from the deli - head on around the bays stopping sporadically to enjoy the view and feel self righteous about the exercise being taken and end up at Tiburon.

Board the Blue and Gold ferry and head back across the harbour past Alcatraz. Cycle back to the hire place, return bicycle while smiling, go for a beer - a practically perfect day.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/21131 Cycling the Golden Gate http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7697 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7697
