  1. I get that it’s synecdoche or w/e but the “this bike lane is killing small blah blah” slogan is kinda funny

    the entire road was redesigned—parking removed, turns prohibited, etc. so it is annoying to center (heh) the bike lane in the argument when so few bike riders even wanted the stupid thing

    if the posters said “SFMTA is killing…” we’d all agree with it

  2. “What about that blue one? We’ll take that one.”

  3. Junior is watching a lot of the 1960s Spiderman cartoon lately, which has pretty catchy music that it maybe relies on a bit too much: like it’s always playing one of three for our themes

    now, I only know those themes from King Megatrip mixes from twenty years ago ( https://megatrip.blogspot.com/2021/02/king-megatrip-mixtapes-2000-2002.html), who fell out of my syndication subs at some point and I’ve now fixed.

  6. Walked down to and through Glen Canyon after lunch

    o/ to the runner who jogged straight up a shortcut from portola’s little dog leg to twin peaks blvd. I was going to head home but decided to follow up instead

  8. Decided to try SFMTA’s recommended southwest route ( https://www.sfmta.com/maps/san-francisco-bike-network-map) today: climbed up chavez to tag slow sanchez, then back down to san jose, arlington, hearst, halloway, south around lake merced, and cruised up the great highway to the windmills to head home through the park, wiggle, etc.

    Lovely!
