I rented five e-bikes bikes at Dandyhorse. Four for my wife and three of my kids, and the other one for me with my 9 year old riding on the back. We rode down through the Presidio, across the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito. It was amazing! After a lunch break in Sausalito we took a ferry back to Pier 39, and then rode around San Francisco for another hour or so before returning the bikes. San Francisco has so much to see, and some of the best things are just in little corner neighborhood markets and other off-the-beaten path locations. These bikes let us see both the big tourist items (like the Golden Gate) as well as ride thru random streets to see what life was like in the City. I'd highly recommend Dandyhorse. Amazing experience that ended up being probably the favorite activity of our entire trip.

Wonderful experience. The park was beautiful and the weather was perfect. From the flowers, to the art, to the people just enjoying the space, it felt perfect. The bike was a great way to experience it. The bridge has hidden from us multiple times in the fog on our days in San Fran. Today, we went to it and it was amazing. Bike had enough power to make it up the hills but took a some effort on several of the big ones. I did standard and it did just fine comfort wise. John, our guide, was outstanding. Very accommodating and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend this experience. It was the highlight of our weekend here.
