The San Mateo Bridge and the Carquinez Straits bridge. I've never seen a cyclist on the Carquinez Bridge. That sounds like a suicide mission to me, like this section on I-5: https://www.flickr.com/photos/bike/2...ream/lightbox/ Have you tried cycling the Carquinez Bridge? [...] -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ It is a protected bike path on the bridge with concrete barriers to separate them from the cars. Sort of like on the Oakland span of the bay bridge. https://www.bicycling.com/culture/a3...e-controversy/ It's weird. I crossed that new span more than a dozen times over the years and never noticed any pedestrians or cyclists. The barrier isn't too high for that, just like on the bike path to Davis along I-80. That one is very long so usually you see a rider or two when driving towards the Bay Area. https://goo.gl/maps/PFFSh6Jv1NfxUtxQ7 The problem with those paths is often the connecting infrastructure. West Sacramento is not very bike-friendly but we have to cross it to get to Davis. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ I don't remember any bike paths to Davis only sideroads. It's a long and boring path directly next to I-80. Starts at 8:50min: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QoGIowtyNE There's be no other year-round path or road because that whole area below is a flood basin and underwater during snow-melt season. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |
