New cycle-friendly gentrification on Valencia Street

 Bikes are front and center on vigorous Valencia St.
The street is changing so dramatically and at warp speed, I thought even this little undramatic moment was worth a note.
Tartine - the chic restaurant and bakery business is trying to be unassuming but with the way things are going that's hard to do.

No, we're not in Rio

Oddly engaging bad art corner grocery mural - somewhere on Valencia St.
Actually this is more likely to be a $4000 electric Google bike now.

Keeping an eye on the Police Station
How long before this place can't afford the neighborhood. I'm not trudging all over to Oakland for a manual egg beater.

The Tars aren't scrambling all over the mainsail, but you get the idea.

Harvesting a humongous Desert Loofah in a pith helmet

Maybe it was out there in the Burning Man event 2012. A bloke on a bike foraging in a dust storm.
