Volunteers needed for bike valet at Sunset Celebration Weekend
Sunset Magazine puts on this annual event featuring the home and garden activities and demonstrations that Sunset is famous for. They want to make it as environmentally friendly as possible, and are encouraging guests to bicycle as well as use public transportation, so they have asked us to do a bike valet. This will be our first year at this event, so we want to shine!

Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition community equinox bike ride
Meet up in San Carlos for a fun bike ride to celebrate the vernal equinox. This community ride, hosted by the Silicon Valley Bicycle Coalition, will generally travel counter-clockwise around Redwood Shores on flat terrain. Detours will take the group to see the bike lanes on Twin Dolphin and trail connections near the dog park and the Redwood Shores Library.
Along the way, the group will cross over a couple of tricky freeway overpasses at Ralston and Holly Streets. Timid riders will want to proceed with caution, but there will be several, more experienced riders to help out.

Menlo Park/Atherton Ride
On Sunday November 16, I led a group of six other riders around Menlo Park and Atherton. Some of the highlights of the tour:
The presumed site for a future undercrossing of the Caltrain tracks between Ravenswood and San Francisquito Creek.
The Alma Street bike bridge.
Willow Road, where the bike lanes are actually wide enough to avoid the door zone.
The Willow-101 interchange. Very bad now, but slated for redesign, and an opportunity to make it more bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly.
Tour of Menlo Park
We will be looking at the not so good, areas needing some improvement or slated for eventual improvement, such as freeway interchanges. So the tour would not be suitable for younger riders. Rain cancels. Meeting time coincides with arrival of southbound train. We will meet on the southbound platform.
