RIDE DETAILS
Come join us to get out of the heat on when we take our Wednesday ride on the San Francisco Bakery Tour. We will stage from the Ferry Building in San Francisco at 9:30 a.m. and ride out to Fisherman’s Wharf, the Presidio, the Legion of Honor, the Great Highway, Lake Merced, and Twin Peaks. This is definitely a social ride, but not without epic and challenging climbs and vistas. It will be important to stay with the group because there are some turns that aren’t very obvious making it easy to get lost and or off course. We will stop at three different bakeries to sample some of the finest bakeries San Francisco has to offer.
How to get there:
Suggest taking BART. If you live near San Ramon, Dubin, or Danville, you might consider starting from the Dublin/Pleasanton Station to avoid having to transfer. You can take the 8:18 train to arrive in S.F. at 9:00. This should give you plenty of time to use the restrooms at the Ferry Building and be ready to roll by 9:30. Remember to bring your clipper card or download the BART app to get your tickets.

Post ride, we will have lunch at Gott’s at the Ferry Building. Here is their menu: https://order.gotts.com/order/gotts-roadside-ferry-building
****Please note that fog or poor AQI will cancel the ride. I will be monitoring the AQI and weather and will post by Tuesday evening if plans change. Please note I will be modifying the route to omit the Great Highway and Lake Merced....the Great Highway is open during the week and there is frequently sand in the bike lane making it risky to traverse as a group.
