Beautiful bike ride to Pike Place ***
I'd strongly recommend picking up a rideshare bike (Lime & Jump here in Seattle) and hop on the Elliot Bay Trail bike path that links Magnolia to the north end of the Piers downtown. It's a goreous ride along the waterfront, giving you a spectacular feel of what it means to live on the Puget Sound.
Good bikeshare pickup location: walk 5 blocks north, you typically find bikes on 20th or 21st Ave W.
Bike Trail: Elliot Bay Trail. Go south along the Balmer Railroad Yard, then hug the shoreline on 16th Ave W and pedal thru Elliot Bay Park, Centennial Park and Myrtle Edwards Park
