Where were all the food carts and insane street performers? Everything on 24th seemed to be closed, there was something on Valencia only every block of so. It was fun walking in the street until I realized that with all the f-ing bikes I was safer walking in the street with traffic.

This was a letdown.

If you want to bike up and down a road Golden Gate Park is a nice place.

In the past, that was the road to enjoy cycling on because it wasn’t packed with pedestrians like 24th and Valencia. It would be nice if they’d figure that out and correct it by October when the next Mission Streets happens.

What are the consequences of my thinking it was hella hard to bike down Valencia with tons of pedestrians all over it?

Live with the consequences of delusional magical thinking. Its the SF way.

But I was there, and it was unpleasant and a lot of people were talking about it.

Maybe the Great Highway one or the Third Street one, but in the Mission? It’s impossible to bike through that throng of humanity. I had to lock up a block away.

Sunday Streets is really a cyclist event and pedestrians have to give way.

So maybe we should just call it Sunday Cycling and be done with it.
