Tomorrow's the 15th Annual Bike to Work Day! Cycling activists anticipate 150,000 participants tomorrow. If we had a bike and worked at an office, we would most certainly be participating. Also, if we lived west of Divisadero, we'd take that awesome Wiggle route. We hear it's the place to be.

Show me the Legalese: Rob Anderson's latest project?

• Lucas (1986), Say Anything (1989), My Bloody Valentine (1981): The first film has socially-retarded Corey Haim falling head over heels in love with a sensitive football player, Charlie Sheen, or something like that; Cameron Crowe's tale of teenage love and angst has John Cusack causing egregious noise pollution when he holds up a ghettoblaster pumping out a Peter Gabriel ballad; and the final film has a murderer in a small coal mining town killing those who celebrate Valentine's Day. They screen at 7:30 p.m., 9:45, and midnight, respectively, at the Castro Theatre; $6-9.
• Editors: Yeah, yeah. We screwed up. Again. The SSRIs are running low this week. Stupid shrink. Anyway, check out this English indie rock band along hipster favorites Hot Hot Heat and Louis XIV. Music starts at 8 p.m. at the Warfield; $23.
• The San Francisco Bicycle Coalition's Love on Wheels: As SFist Jim mentioned before, tonight's Dating Game parody in Hayes Valley should be divine. Starts at 7 p.m. at Rickshaw Stop; free for members of the SFBC ($10 for non-members).

Bike to Work Day in San Francisco is ongoing. Pictured is the ride of San Francisco Bicycle Coalition Program Director Andy "The Boss" Thornley, complete with large flag just for today. (Yes, that's the official City and County flag. It's hard to read the three words underneath the bird, but we think they spell out "Pontiac Trans Am".) Looks like Andy's inside City Hall right now pressing his case for cycling in the City. Details about where to get your canvas corporate swag bag on your ride home here and here. A quick report here.

Day II after the Critical Mass incident, we're seeing the bikers weigh in with their version of what happened and also some thoughts on the matter from Gavin. We're also seeing a lot of hate out there thrown in every direction as the war between bikers and car drivers is one of the hottest of hot button issues in this city.

Saturday: The San Francisco Bicycle Coalition's Tour de Fat runs from 11-5 today at Speedway Meadow in Golden Gate Park. The event is described as "Two parts bike rodeo and one part circus", and is free, free free.

We here at SFist run the gamut from happily single to partnered up to polyamorous, but we all agree that there's something to that whole "love" thing. That's why we're happy to be partnering with the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition and Single Exposure (formerly Shooting Singles) for "Love on Wheels" tonight from 6-9 at Cafe du Nord.
