From the SF Bicycle Coalition:
Yes, true, the Wiggle is named due to the zigzag of bike route #30 through the neighborhood and avoiding hills. But is there more to it than that? Thinkwalks presents an exploration walk that will explore the ‘hood from this, that and askew angles: geology, activism history, water, and native tribes. Highlights include: Market Street punched through rock, 1928 highway design, insanely huge floods, Yelamu village of Chutchui, first gay couple, black financial power, SF Bicycle Coalition history, and Duboce mural.
Stan Parkford is a graduate of the Urban Studies and Planning Department at SF State University.
