2 of the 3 car events I attend each year just happened. 10/14 was the Old Car Picnic, started by a park gardener, been going on for 34 years right on the grass at Speedway Meadows in Golden Gate Park San Francisco, truly a fun event draws hundreds of entrants from all over the Bay Area, everything represented, low riders, motorcycles, trucks, muscle, imports, and a few Stovebolts. Brought a bbq and made a day of it. Funny the F..rd next to me had lots of folks checking out the adventure camper, we traded bbq, he did a nice home made wild boar sausage, and tri tip! I just brought sausage….and fresh sourdough French bread….
9/24 was the 16th year for the car show I put on in conjunction with the Cole Valley Street Fair, 20 entrants, the street fair is a fun family event in my little San Francisco neighborhood .
BTW:unlike how the news portrays it, much of San Francisco is great little neighborhoods, locals consider each as their own little town…… (and yes, city politics are sometimes screwy….)
