good to see some different types of bike in there, can't stand when I pass a "Harley Guy" on the road and can tell he has no respect

Here's a link (http://www.tomhallphotos.com/photos/418417208_Ltsed-O.jpg) to that same group picture in hi-res; can get a better look at the bikes if you like.
Here's a neat pic where you can see the ninjette and some other bikes just starting down Lombard Street:

The rest of the pics aren't as ninjette-related, but there are some neat pics of some nice bikes. Here's a link to the full gallery. (http://www.tomhallphotos.com/gallery/6572221_PfAGn/1/418410925_G28R3#418410370_D7Udc)

The infamous street. I'd like to get my bike up to SF and tackle the twisties on Lombard street.:D However, multiple hills and manual just don't do it for me.:( Thats the only drawback for me in SF.

Yup, it's more fun for pictures than for riding. Here's an overhead view of the entire street:

lol Lombard street is not that cool.
As Alex said, great for pictures but that's about it.:D
SF is too busy for me... I'd rather walk with friends or take the trolleys.
