We'll tour Golden Gate Park using transportation history as our lens to examine how parks reflect the social patterns of a society. The park is where the first reinforced concrete bridge was built, the first drivers license issued (yes, in the whole world!) and other amazing twists of fate. We'll bicycle to the remains of bridges and railroads and see where bicycling became a West Coast craze.
