What To Expect

Pick up your bike in the Marina District, a neighborhood situated less than 3 miles (4.8 km) away from the Golden Gate Bridge. Your full day bike rental includes a helmet, u-lock, map, and some safety tips along with different sizes of well-maintained bikes that are personally adjusted to fit your height. Depending on your destination, you will be provided with bike routes to avoid San Francisco hills and traffic. The mostly flat bike path to the Golden Gate Bridge is just three blocks away from the Lombard Street bike shop. Ride along the scenic waterfront with outstanding views of San Francisco Bay. Pass by the Great Meadow Park at Fort Mason, Crissy Field, the Palace of Fine Arts, and Fort Point en route to the bridge, which leads to Vista Point and the Marin Headlands. Upon reaching the other side of the Golden Gate Bridge, cycle mostly downhill about 2 miles (3.2 km) for dining and shopping in the waterfront town of Sausalito. From here, you can catch a ferry back to Fisherman's Wharf or the Ferry Building with your bike (own expense). The entire trip takes about 3–4 hours. Alternatively, bike around the city and visit other San Francisco attractions such as Golden Gate Park and Union Square.

Don't underestimate the terrain.

Good bike rental experience in general. If you own a higher quality bike, it will make you appreciate the investment. You get what you pay for, in terms of weight and gear ratio. Don't underestimate the terrain or those afternoon winds across the bay. That e-bike will look cheap after an afternoon of thigh busting pedaling.
Great location, great bikes, epic SF experience.

What an awesome experience, electric biking around San Francisco and the beautiful Marina, Presidio, Golden Gate Bridge, Golden Gate Park, and so much more. Lily, Barry and Jason were courteous, knowledgeable and super helpful during our family trip. The bikes were awesome, and much needed navigating the hills of SF. Their location was perfect and was super close to the Marina waterfront; perfect start for our ride. I’m glad there are many parking garages around the location too as we drove in. Definitely going to do this again

Poor customer Service: the agent who handed us the bikes was particularly. He addressed us (a couple aged 49 and 58) as if he were lending bicycles to schoolchildren, repeating the different instructions three times in an authoritarian tone! At the price of renting these bikes (as expensive as a rental car), it is really a lack of commercial know-how and respect. I recommend against this renter, which is not well placed.

very poor bikes in a very poor condition. While cycling my bike broke down. Have it repaired somewhere else but Bike&View later refused to reimburse it. While the making bike maker clearly indicated that the equipment that was rented is in very poor condition. The Service afterwards has no chance.
The best way to explore San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge.

The handover was quick and uncomplicated. The nice and helpful parked also checked the bikes again before our departure together with us. The bikes were nothing special, but perfectly sufficient for a one-day city tour.
Wonderful

I found Bike & View by googling when I searched for bike rental for one day. The online rental process is very easy and convenient. The price paid is cheaper than renting the bike at the store. They give you together with the bike a lock and helmet. You should return the bike at the latest at 4.45 pm which is enough time to take the bike at 10.30am, cross the bridge, have a lunch at Sausalito, enjoy the city a couple of hours and come back by crossing the bridge either by ferry or by bike.
Great bike
