park in a basket
A week ago on Sunday, I met up with my peeps for a let's-meet-up & see-what-we-come-up-with ride. On this mellow afternoon, I got the chance to ride one of the bixi bikes, doing a showcase area at Golden Gate park. More info about this project can be read at: sf streetsblog and sfgate.com

In my opinion, the bikes ride well. They would be okay on flatter streets around the city. I can see them go from 1 market street to the inner sunset with no problem at all. (If my Frenchie can make it without changing gears, I think these bikes could make it too).
Anytime you put bikes, limited motorized vehicle access and trees altogether, it is a set-up for fun.
I met this very nice gentlemen, JP and we were both checking out the bixi bikes. One thing is for sure, the more access to bikes, weather is your own ride, a bicycle share program, a friend's bike – it gives you the control to get to places at your own pace, when you want to and meet some new pals along the way.

Or meet with your pals there and then wander off and rediscover your city with your own pedal-powered freedom machine :)
