yeah it's a fun streen because of the amount of turns...

but it sucks because it's cobblestone... not much traction =-/

you could ride up it a lot faster. :icon_mrgreen:  That is a really fun road in a roadster car, can't imagine it on a bike very well.  Some of those streets in S.F. just flat suck with a clutch though.  I can't imagine living in that crap.

yeah all 50 bikes romping SF is kinda crazy...

im just glad we didn't hit critical mass

critical mass- when all the tree huggin hippies in SF (im talking THOUSANDS) ride there bikes over the city in swarms...
they litterally block traffic and streets are unusable....

Yeah, that whole thing is great and all, but its crap.  When you can't get around literally all day, thats kind of ridiculous.  They can have their rights respected, but you gotta respect others as well.
