Tips for riding into downtown SF?
I'm starting a new job downtown (Market St., near Embarcadero), and I'm wondering what's the best route one could take from the Ingleside/SFSU area.
So far, I figure it'll be a good 10 miles, which isn't bad, but having never ridden into downtown, I'm not sure which route to take. Any suggestions would be so appreciated! |
Best bet is to get over to Alemany or San Jose/280 off ramp then take Valencia or Market in. I found this link, never used it but see what it says.

Wow, thanks for the link!
I've been playing around with different starting points near SFSU, and I think I found a route that works. Chumasero/Galindo in the Parkmerced area to Brotherhood > Alemany > San Jose > Valencia > Folsom to Emabarcadero and finally Market St. Now I just need to get out there and try it. Riding into downtown, the biggest thing I'm worried about it road conditions. Being SF, I know it gets rough in spots, so hopefully I'll learn where the potholes are before I hit them, lol. |

if you want something a little lighter to use, less load time with the web browser and easier to pull up on your smart phone, you could try this site http://amarpai.com/bikemap/bikemap.html . It's pretty much is the same as the SFBC route mapper.
