SFBC Bike Ride: How Does Getting Rid of Freeways Change Our Community?

From SFBC:

Come join our Golden Wheel keynote speaker Peter Norton, local Streetfight author Jason Henderson, and Livable City Director Tom Radulovich to talk about the impacts of freeway teardowns and traffic shrinkage on the way we all live, work, and play.

We’ll be taking a leisurely bike ride around the city, looking at some of San Francisco’s most famous freeway locations. Stops will include the Embarcadero, Hayes Valley, and many of the on and off ramps in the SOMA neighborhood.
