I don’t actually recall much about any of them to be honest, but the Ford GoBike map is keeping the dream alive:

The Lexington Club is tente gonflable definitely still kaput though.

Also what ever happened to Emily’s Seasonal Soulfood?

Honest question: Why does the Tesla brand give me such strong douche vibes even though electric cars are clearly much better for the planet? https://t.co/vVnp3RcIiV

Another side benefit of using @FordGoBike: forced break from looking at screens! It's like I really saw my neighborhood for the first time 🤓

Last week we did a post about protected bike lanes being a good thing, inspired by this photo of demonstrators demonstrating on Valencia Street:

Reader mushmouth has a different take:

No please no as a cyclist those things suck, I constantly get stuck behind two people riding slowly side by side chatting. They do nothing to stop cars but you will likely be hurt if you hit them on your bike. I highly doubt there were many injuries in the places they have been installed before they were installed. Seriously they are a solution searching for a problem.

SFBC if you want to make the streets safer get the quality of the pavement improved, and fixed right, maybe starting with the pothole that has been growing for the past year 20 feet from your HQ door on Market and Valencia.

Reader Ashley wrote in with the info and a plea:

My friend Dana was hit while riding her bike Tuesday 11/29 going southbound on Potrero between 22nd & 23rd (in front of SFGH), sometime between 10:15-10:27 pm. Specifically, she was hit at 1072 Potrero. PLEASE HELP US LOCATE THE DRIVER. If you were in the area at the time & witnessed the accident, or if you have seen a DARK BLUE, late model MINI COOPER which is now missing a SIDE MIRROR, contact me!! Any information could be helpful. SF is a small city and I know we can find the person who hit my friend & fled the scene if this post gets around. Please, please share!!!!

Please share!

You can do that now, and it was awesome.

Hahaha some fool on a fixie just did the fixie skid across the street from where I’m sitting eating my burrito but he timed it with the beat drop of the dub step he was blasting. I hate Valencia street
