He was walking around with a couple buds yesterday leaving the Hyatt (race HQ).

Market Street ain't for no cyclists never. It SUCKS. Probably like the Champs Elysee except for
their one special day a year.

Think I'll have any luck getting him to sign my VC jersey?

Looking forward to this...

Northbound on the Golden Gate Bridge (to Marin)!

Actually, you can tool around through the park and down to lake Merced, but the city is really
small, so why not just split? Every serious cyclist leaves SF for just about any training ride.

Come down to Santa Cruz. They'll be zipping around down here on Saturday, I'm positive.

The Champs is pretty sedate except at the Arc.

If you aren't a city rider there aren't any good streets in San Francisco that go for more than a
block or two.

I don't have any problems there but then I ride pretty agressive in traffic.

During my warmup for the Giro I rode back and forth from the Pier 20 area on the Embarcadero to Pac
Bell Park and it was okay and with some nice scenery. Maybe because it was on Labor Day...

The Champs isn't bad if you catch the lights. And sometimes it is closed to cars for 30 minutes or
so while for the weekly Friday night ride through Paris (starts at 10pm) goes up (or down) it, as
was the case last Friday night.

I used to ride Market Street every single day, commuting from Nob Hill to Spear & Harrison and from
Nob Hill to the Ferry Terminal. Market Street is easy.

Try riding Mission Street during rush hour.
