Transportation

  • Bike
    • There are lots of places to get a bike: local co-ops (e.g. The Missing Link Bike Shop), used/secondhand (e.g. Craigslist, people moving out of the area selling their stuff), a traditional bike/sports store (Mike's Bikes, REI, Sports Basement, etc.) or big box store (e.g. Target).
    • General advice for biking safely and avoiding bike theft.
    • License your bike on campus
  • BART around the Bay Area. Very convenient for getting to the airport (there are trains that go directly to both Oakland OAK and San Francisco SFO).
  • Walk! Berkeley is a very walkable city.
  • Other options less common are mopeds (popular with undergrads) and motorcycles.
