I'd say the best route to get to the coast is BART to SF and then take the "wiggle" bike route (you can probably google it) from market street up to golden gate park, and ride out to the ocean through the park. Like anne says, you'll have to climb, first to get up and over daly city and then the devil's slide climb, but both of these are significantly less climbing than trying to cross the coast range anywhere on the peninsula.
