And you should too, that’s what I’m saying.
Now, going south on Masonic is different. You should stay on the street ’til the cross-street Turk (which has a higher speed limit than Masonic, go figure). Then you go onto the sidewalk for one block (taking care to avoid the illegally parked cars put there by area homeowners who actually own garages, go figure).

Thursday, March 21st, 2013See?

Who knows, it might happen – Bush might get its own “contra-flow” bike lane in the Financh, the way they want for the one-way part of Polk near Market and the way things are now in some parts of Golden Gate Park.
