Photo du Jour 116

This is all kinds of genius, here. Why don't we have bicycle lifts installed on every hill in San Francisco? Oh right, because we live in a dangerously litigious city.

But still: wow. Check out more shots of the lift in use here.

Nah, there'd be ten cars illegally parked, trash in the gutter and two homeless people sleeping on the tracks.

 

LOVE it.

 
 

Eurolazies.

 

Capri pants on men=no

 

uh, poor choice of "photo du jour", clearly the one of the lady pushing her stroller up the hill via the lift is the best one.

 

yeah, pure genus

 

deadbrother, it is whimsical, but i'd rather not promote that kind of lifestyle.

 

cute butt

 

Litigious or not, this would be all kinds of dangerous on steep SF hills. One false move and you're tumbling down the hill, head first, with your bike crashing down behind you.

Anyway, we already have bike lifts of a sort.

 

Just get a Segway and your hill problems are solved

Segway Mom, for one, isn't waiting around for the government to solve her problems:

Go on. Get a Segway. We're all waiting for you.

 

Is that what passes for a hill in that part of the world?

 

I tried to click on the link and my work's filter blocked it as "swimsuit/intimate apparel." WTF?

 

Are you kidding me? God forbid you pedal up the hill and get a little exercise. Get a Segway please. And then move to Hayward.
