Your description looks familiar I like it. Now if OPD would give these street entrepreneurs a little attention maybe some folks might get there bikes back and the rest of us a little safer. Well OPD would have to do a large round up to make that area safe. Baby steps.

I'd be happy w/ baby steps, if OPD could just get the very busy bike business out of our neighborhood - it would be great to see something happen there

San Quentin nice this time of year. Maybe they have a bike repair program they can enroll in. They can take all the lost bikes fix them and return them to those who need a bike.
