Electric bike self guide - Golden Gate Bridge

We booked directly with Blazing Saddles - to include the charter ferry return option from Sausalito. Staff were incredibly helpful and enthusiastic on both sides of the Bay. Would highly recommend.

The perfect way to experience the GG bridge, Sausalito and Pier39

We had the best ride from start to finish with Blazing Saddles E-Bikes. From being greeted, trained, and set off on the right path at the shop, to the midway point guys in Sausalito, to the sea lions at Pier39, my family thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Blazing Saddles E-bike rentals. The bikes were in great shape, did the job getting up hills, and were comfortable for our soft bottoms. We had a blast with this booking and would 100% recommend to anyone visiting the city.

Fantastic day adventure

This bike rental shop was fantastic. I snagged an all day ebike rental and departed around 9 AM for Tiburon. The ride was super enjoyable on the bike and the electric assist made sure I arrived in time to get lunch at Sam's Anchor Cafe before catching the 1:15 PM ferry back to the city. It was a super easy ride back to the shop. I really appreciate the friendly staff helping make sure I had what I needed to go a bit further than most folks going up to Sausalito. I'll be back for another lap at some point :)

A Spectacular Way to Cross the Golden Gate Bridge

We had the best day riding over to Sausalito and back. The electric option made riding for everyone in our party doable. Mikey was super helpful and friendly as was the rest of the staff! The bikes were in great shape, fully charged and ready to take on the day. We'd definitely rent through Blazing Saddles again. The price was fair, comparable to other companies in the area.
