damn. i've wanted to go to SF for quite some time. thought about moving there at one point...but...um...until i looked at those pics again, i didn't realize there were palm trees there. i thought it was a good place to enjoy a palm tree-free california, more the sequoias and northern california feel. but i have a weird thing about palm trees. i don't like 'em. maybe kind of strange...but...give me rain and evergreens, moss and lichen any day...*sigh*, i think i'm tied to the northwest...

Don't really want to blow any illusions but there is a rather large palm tree right in Stumptown on NE Hoyt between Randall and Lawrence..... been there for many years. There are others but that one stands out.

I used to regularly commute from Philly:

Here's a cool shot I took by 30th street station (note the parked car in the background):

Obligatory bike pr0n; Schuylkill river (and Boathouse Row) in the background, taken next to the Art Museum. This is a really old picture, and my bike has since changed a bit.

late night roll in albuquerque - the lights are timed on most streets downtown, so you can blaze without concern for cross-traffic, especially in the small hours of the day/night

word to that. i did a long tour with my german friend a few years ago.
we rode from Northern Germany > Up the coast of Sweden > Copenhagen >
back to Germany... it was by far my favorite stop. Beautiful people, beer,
beaches, buildings. I should dig up my old pics from that trip.

I actually hate palm trees too. They're in the touristy parts of SF--embarcadero, by the de Young, Union Square--because they don't have extensive root structures, don't drop lots of leaves and needles and things, and are easy to care for.

Meh I say.

You can ignore them pretty good 'round these parts, 'specially 'cause in the neighborhoods you don't see 'em, much.

I like it here.
thx schloe moe. I can´t say my friends have pitched your city in any nice way..The people I know from "chicaga" all live in NY now..I hope it treats you well.
On the other hand I would love to see Toronto. I´m a sucker I know.. I´ll buy anything my friends tell me. And they do have some good stories from the T..Insomnambulant have you been to any goldsprint by r-evolution?
