Bay Bridge Trail tour (Emeryville to Bay Bridge)

[@ianstewart8301]

Wow! It’s changed so much since I lived there in Oakland. And you can thank Mayor John for all that infrastructure right?

[@thegreenwaywithmac]

He’s a big part of it. He’s championed the cause. But others before him laid the groundwork. I’ll have an update from Emeryville sometime this week…along with a street connection to a cool trail in Berkeley.

great video, are there any safe free car parking near Ikea?

[@thegreenwaywithmac]

You could risk parking at IKEA. The Bay Street parking garage is safe, but not free. 210 Burma Rd is 5 hours free and should be safe.

My favorite bike trail! If you continue on the trail, it goes under the eastern span of the Bay Bridge onto Treasure Island. Warning, the bike trail into Treasure Island is incredibly steep. Riding down the trail is not recommended. Walking your bike down is the way to go. Also, there is a ferry that runs from Treasure Island to the ferry terminal in San Francisco, with plenty of room for bicycles/E-bikes.

All accurate info. I love this trail as well…just takes a while to get there from Alameda. How’s the new park atop the hill?

@@thegreenwaywithmac I haven't been there since last year, but I'll make a trip over there very soon.

Are escooters allowed in the bay bridge trail?

[@thegreenwaywithmac]

Here's what the website says: Skateboards, scooters and skates are not permitted I don't know what they mean by scooters...if that's a moped style or the standing scooters. They patrol the bridge, but I haven't seen anyone patrolling there since the bridge opened.

Where can you park your car when biking to the bay bridge?

[@thegreenwaywithmac]

If you are doing the trail to the bridge, then I would park at the Bay St parking garage. You might be able to park for free at IKEA, if you want to take a risk of being ticketed or towed. There might be some parking near Horton and 53rd on the street for free, near where the video started. You can also park at the base of the bridge at 210 Burma Rd, right next to the trail.
