Angel Island is a *really* nice excursion, but it could eat up a lot of your time with the ferry crossings- since you're going to be there after the summer season is over, the ferry schedule might be scaled back.
Given your time constraints, perhaps a ride across the GG bridge into Sausalito and maybe on to Tiburon and a ferry ride back into San Francisco might be nice.
Probably not gonna do Angel Island, as I would rather stay with paved roads and a road bike, if possible. '
What's it like, riding across the GG bridge? Is there a bike lane or do you ride with the traffic? I have a little bit of bridge phobia, but might be able to do it if I need to. I figure I'll have approx. 6 hours worth of riding time so I should be able to get in a decent number of miles. I'll bring my own shoes, pedals, water bottles, etc. OH- and a camera!
