SFBC's Report Card for Bicycling: Steep Grades

It's the last day of the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition's SF Bike Survey. The survey is open to all -- you need not be a member to air your opinions about cycling in the city.

Curiously absent from the survey are opportunities to assess important style-related issues: who are these people who wear their helmets tilted way back? Why do some people pedal with their knees sticking way out? Is it cooler for a fixie kid to buy an expensive white chain or just to spraypaint the chain white to match their wheels/seat/grips/skin?

We particularly relished the part of the survey where we got to talk about our fears. Having just watched Morford & Martin's film MASH, we've discovered a whole new way to fear bicycling in the city: by watching it on DVD. You can experience the fear and the beauty yourself on the big screen -- for free! There's a screening of MASH at the Independent (Divisadero @ Hayes) on Monday, May 5th, at 8 p.m.
