I have been looking forward to today for a long time. CicloSDias takes over some of the streets of North Park, Normal Heights and City Heights, which means they are closed to cars, buses and those super aggressive monster trucks. They instead are only open to bicyclists, pedestrians, scooters, skaters, strollers, wheelchairs, and my favorite, the unicyclists. I wouldn't really mention it here generally, except I heard there will be three music stages along the route, so it's like a mini version of Rock 'n' Roll Marathon without 24 of the miles. Once you've locked up your bike, dance your butt off to Zeds Dead at the Observatory or head to Girl Power Fest at the Irenic. Other shows of note include the Psychedelic Furs at Belly Up, Groundwater Festival at Petco Park or Ali Azimi & the Need at Music Box.
