This is my first post, so bare with me! I'll be on vacation in San Francisco next month and I would like to check out some cycling shops. I'm mainly interested in women's apparel since my local selection is really lame! I would appreciate any advice!

There is a shop owned by women called (I think) Left Coast Cycles in Oakland/Berkeley. It's small, but very cool. I've only visited twice, but one of the Bay Area babes will post more info I'm sure.

Sports Basement at Crissy Field in the Presidio has a pretty good selection of womens cycling stuff. Their inventory varies a lot, though.
I think Bicycle Odyssey on Bridgeway in Sausalito has a good selection of women's stuff - especially good higher end shorts, which can be hard to find. (No Assos though).Sarah

Why not combine these two? Start at Sports Basement, ride across the Golden Gate to Sausalito ride back or take the Ferry to the Ferry Building on Embarcadero?

The why not has gotta be the climb from Sausolito back up to the bridge Originally Posted by Trek420

Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

But if you take the ferry you have to ride all the way across San Francisco. I'd rather ride Sausalito hill than deal with driving all the way across the city. I do think Sports Basement is worth a visit. It's huge and fun.
