HipsterBikeRack

They get rid of my tree (side note: There’s a cheetos wrapper offending on the graveyard of the spot to have formerly been the resting home of my tree (see previous post, My Tree)), and yesterday, there’s this hipster bike rack out front. And today, they spray painted a little white bike symbol underneath just in case people in the Tenderloin aren’t sure about what this thing is supposed to be used for. You put something like this up in the Mission and you would have had 20 bikes attached to it yesterday. In the Tenderloin, we need a little time to adjust to this type of gentrification. I knew it was coming, just not like this, in the form of hipsters. They come here to eat the Saigon Sandwiches (see previous post, Tummy Love part 1) but it’s a passing fancy, they’re in and out. They never linger. This bike rack indicates lingering.




Annnnnd, speaking of Saigon Sandwich...it'll be closed March 1st-March 31st for remodeling. Can't wait to see it!
