Rider Andrew sends this photo, and these words:
Found this parked at Fort Mason today. I don’t believe it’s the case for all Prius drivers, but this particular owner is generating a lot of smug…
I just wonder whether it averages higher than 8.1 mph …

Rider Joey sent in this warm and fuzzy picture:
I really think PDA should be banned at bus stops. It’s not like I can wait somewhere else.
Ah, young love. I mean, I’m all for happiness and everything.
Actually, bus stop PDA is not on my list of PDA Don’ts: babytalking is at the top. You know what I mean, Schmoopykissypoo?

this guy doin pushups on muni… sit down! lmao
We’ve seen plenty of pull-ups in our day, but never someone down on the floor rockin’ the push-ups. Bravo!
Whereas Telstar Logistics spotted his piggy-back streetcar along Interstate 80 East near Park City, Utah (above) earlier this year, Tara peeped this one (below) heading south on 280 the other day. Pretty darn cute, right? Oh, 1080 and 1096, come back and see us soon, please.

I realized that the weekend’s sunshine was one big tease when I opened my eyes this morning to the rain. But rider “smallerdemon” sent us this photo, which looks even more amazing if you click it and view it in its large format. This makes enduring the rain almost worth it…
