SFBC Monthly Good Roads Ride
"Join the Good Roads Crew to nail the trouble with Folsom. This prime bike route has the roughest, most hazardous surfaces in SOMA. (If you think others are worse, let us know and we’ll get to them, too). From 10th to the Embarcadero we’ll bike, walk, take notes, and get pics. Expect lots of spray paint around the potholes and cracks. Help us document how much Folsom needs resurfacing -- or, at the very least, wide-patch paving -- for cyclists to ride safely. Serious business but good cheer follows with drinks and lunch."
