If you're looking to ride into Gig Harbor from Tacoma via bicycle it is very easy. In fact I did so yesterday. There is a bike path that goes from the narrows bridge on the Tacoma side into downtown Gig Harbor, essentially.
If you're doing this all by bicycle I would highly recommend utilizing our vast ferry system in some form because it is very fun and scenic, and if you're very lucky you might see some orcas.
