This evening, the SF Bicycle Coalition will lead a survey ride to discuss the new proposal to build protected bike lanes on Mission Street instead of Market Street. Bike riders looking for fun this weekend can join the East Bay Bike Party on a transportation history ride from the Wiggle to the beach, and the first Sunday Streets of the season is coming to the Embarcadero.
Here are all the highlights from the Streetsblog calendar:
