Instead, many of the rides begin and end at BART stations, or are actually useful transportation routes, like a decent way to get from downtown SF to the SF airport (!!). The book's dedication reads "To cyclists without cars."

Even though it's called "Short Bike Rides" some of them are 30+ miles. it covers SF, East Bay, and Marin County. Also some rides down the Pacific coast from SF.

The author is Henry Kingman and the publisher is Globe Pequot. They have it at the Oakland Public Library.
Thanks for the suggestion. It looks like a great book, so I just bought a used one from Amazon for < $6 (including shipping).
