Bay area wrap up

Some more bikey and other things from the Bay area, while you peruse, please ponder this, in one of the Starbucks on Union Square we saw on day 1:
Young well dressed woman of maybe 23 years, eating baby food applesauce from a jar, no evidence of motherhood or baby care.
Day two:
NYT reading man sipping grande latte, eating scone with a single can of whiskas tuna pate next to him, possibly ready for a post scone treat?
What the hell?

Anyhow:
My friday fixie works great on these useless old racks, Danville Safeway
Old rack works OK for the friday.

Attempt on Diablo, turned back by 100+ degree temps, free peach though from fruitmonger who took pity on me.
Me, peach, diablo

I did find a wrench at 104 degrees F

    Why I walk the earth, of course. Either that or I am a research scientist prone to conference traveling. There were 8 days of non photogenic very long meetings in that trip, you just get to see the fun part. Except for here
