Enjoy.
Will this…

…and this?
Well, not actually because this particular car vs. bike from last year happened to be the impatient cyclist’s fault, because he went across against a red, because bike riders don’t have as much time to cross as they used to, owing to the newish dedicated cyclist light Oh well.
Anyway, I would have said that Santa installed all the new hardware, but I was beaten to the punch by Dale Danley / Panhandle Park Stewards, who naively wonder why the Panhandle Bandshell went away despite the fact that the “partners” of PPS are the same people who made the harmless bandshell go away.
(So I don’t know, I’ll consider the Panhandle Park Stewards ranking someplace north of that horribly corrupt Willie Brown S.L.U.G. vehicle for the while. Enjoy your “partnership” with the corrupt RPD, and the NIMBYed-up NoPNA, and the millionaires’ kid’s school as you garden, Deutsches Jungvolk und Bund Deutscher Mädel.)
Anyway, you can look forward to the flashing lights of traffic cams when errant drivers err at Fell and Masonic. (UCSF shuttle van drivers beware, beware!)

So this is what happens, somebody comes along and steals the saddle, fork and headset.
See?

Oh, the hubris of leaving your bike only partially secured in front of the flagship Nordstrom in Mayor Ed Lee’s San Francisco…

Because the little monsters will mess you up.
That’s why.
As seen on Polk betwixt Grove and McAllister:

Now, take this carcass into a bike shop and they’ll start talking about Chuck the Wheelbuilder and how great he is and then they’ll quote you a price that exceeds what you paid for the bike in the first place.
Oh well.

[BIKE NOPA has an update. The Examiner has a report indicating the cyclist has only "minor injuries." Could it be that the car got it worse than the guy on the bike?]
A small Ford Focus ZXW station wagon collided with a cyclist at the intersection of Fell and Masonic this afternoon.
This red Cannondale fixie had its fork torn in two.

Sadly, the artiste is unavailable for comment.
Irregardless, this piece is a wonderful contribution to the utensil oeuvre

Whatever you do, don’t strip it down and take off the paint. You look good in pink.
Get your Schwinn steel cruiser frame with steel springer fork and Shimano 7-speed rear derailleur with SRAM grip shift right here at Target. Some assembly reqd.

Pee-Wee Herman’s rather baroque red bicycle, stripped down to its essence, would look something like this Schwinn beach cruiser avec springer fork seen on Valencia. Click to expand:
Whitewalls, gratuitous spokes, kickstand and chrome, chrome, chrome.
That’s quite a look.
