Really beats any transportation across the bridge... is the Bike Shuttle. You need to have your bike, and you can catch it at MacArthur Bart or at the Transbay terminal in SF. It gets you across the bay for a dollar.
At MacArthur Bart, it's located where the passenger loading zone is. At the Transbay terminal, it's located at the end of the first platform on the 2nd floor, to the right as you enter the terminal. It does get packed so you do have to be punctual. They only come once in half hour.
You would have to lock down your bike in three different spots on the shuttle. The guy sitting next to me was a newbie, and didn't do it right, so his bike almost fell off of the shuttle today. Another thing I have to warn is that the people on the shuttle are hipster kids. They can be kind of funky. Today was a particularly warm day. And the funk was kind of intense. Somebody let one out in the shuttle... and I'm convinced that that's why the girl sitting behind me got car sick and had to move to the front.
Other than that, bike shuttle is a nice and relaxing way to commute.
