Well, yesterday’s Sunday Streets went off without a hitch under the pouring sun (after the fog went away, sort of). Check it out at the Richmond District Blog and elsewhere.
Here’s the heart of the party, at the intersection of Lincoln and the Great Highway in the outer Outer Sunset. Click to expand:
Even auslanders came into The City yesterday to enjoy the Sunday of limited car access:
Electric bikes everywhere in Golden Gate Park, for rental, for purchase, whichever:
Plenty of young families made the scene:
Aikido in the Park? Mochiron, tomodachi:
It was just a little foggy out near the blue Pacific…
…but the fog umbrellas proved useful:
Hey, it’s District 6 Supervisor-Elect Debra Walker getting her ride attention at the free Sports Basement temporary fix-it shop:
So my Kawasaki Ninja (I kept telling them that it’s just a 600) isn’t welcome but this gas-powered “go-ped” is? Mmmmm
A tow is always nice when you’re skateboarding on the Great Highway:
Plenty of engineers around…
And a bit of a wait for the N Judah at the end of the day, but oh well.
Yes DPW was fairly agressive about getting traffic moving again at 2:00 PM and yes, some cars trying to get across GGP were a-honking after waiting a while for the flow of bikes to stop, but all in all, everything seemed to work out.
See you again on September 6, 2009!
