On a recent stay in the Bay Area, we took in among other sites the cycling scene.
In spite of the city's famed hills, cyclists were everywhere.
From the Mission district's bike shops to Union Square's climbers, the city is very much sprinkled with two-wheelers.
Helmets tended toward construction site-like lids, panniers were omnipresent.
Parking, as in Philadelphia, was available on every block on old (?) parking meters.
The city is also home to many fantastic bike shops. Every shop we went to was staffed with very friendly women and men who are serious, serious professionals.
