FYI: Some bike racks coming up sometime soon on 22nd St. Not sure it will
help the safety issue much, but may help with overflow when space upstairs
is limited.

Hi Julio,****
** **
Sorry for the long delay.****
** **
After going out there a couple of times, I concluded that …
[View More]the best location
for racks was on 22nd St. Sites for four racks (accommodating a total of 8
bikes) were marked with white dots. In late May, we mailed the ground floor
businesses and the property owner (per our usual process) and didn’t
receive any comments. (We are also adding two more racks across the street
in front of the Bruner’s Building.)****
** **
The racks were added to a work order submitted to the Public Works crews
who install them on June 7. There is currently quite a back log, so I
apologize again for the delay. I can’t tell you when they will be installed
L--it’s out of my control.****
** **
The reason I opted against the Broadway location was because of the white
zone/loading-unloading in front of the Sound Room and because removing and
replacing the two U-racks there was a bit messy because the sidewalk is in
such poor condition.****
** **
Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for your patience,****

Hi Jennifer,****
** **
I was wondering what the status was of the bike racks on the SW corner of
22nd and Broadway. I can't find an email about this, but I believe that we
talked and agreed that the best solution was to remove the existing racks
there, and replace them with multiple perpendicular racks. I thought you
said it would take 3 months, but I'm pretty sure nothing has happened yet,
so I wanted to ask and make sure it was still on your radar. Let me know
if I need to do anything else.****

Thanks,
Julio****

What about simply adding a bunch of sidewalk racks?****

No need to submit a request online. And I manage the CityRacks program
which includes the bike corrals. (More info on those at

Hi Jennifer,****
****
We talked earlier about putting a bike rack on the sidewalk in front of our
house. For the moment, those plans are on hold.****
****
However, I was wondering if the CityRacks Program would be able to put some
bike racks on the Southwest corner of Broadway at 22nd Street (on the
Broadway side). This is a commercial area and, recently, hosts a new
hackerspace called SudoRoom on the second floor of the building, where many
members use their bicycles to get there, but are forced to bring the bikes
upstairs due to the lack of safety and visibility below. This corner would
be a great location to have a pool of bike racks similar to what is in
front of the New Parkway theater on 474 24th Street. I'm not sure if those
bike racks were put up under the CityRacks program, but wanted to explore
what was possible around Broadway and 22nd. There is plenty of room, but I
don't know what kind of process we'd have to go through.****
****
Let me know if I should just submit a CityRacks request on the website.****
****
Thanks in advance for any guidance you are able to provide.****

Hello Julio,
First, please accept my apology for responding so late to this request.
Second, the CityRacks program installs racks in commercial areas only, not
residential areas. If the property owner wishes to install sidewalk bike
racks they can; the process is outlined here:
http://www2.oaklandnet.com/Government/o/PWA/o/EC/s/BicycleandPedestrianProg…
.
Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for your interest in
bicycling in Oakland!

additional_info: We work from home and only use our bikes for
transportation. Rather than have to lock up our bikes inside the house each
time we come in and out, we would like to have a rack outside the house so
we could quickly lock up during the day. Friends and other neighbors would
also be able to use the racks, since many also use bikes predominantly.

Put simply, everything is working except …
[View More]the outer door is not
actually buzzing opening when it says it does. It appears a wire came
loose between the raspi and the door buzzer. We're trying to figure
out the right way to put it back.
Unrelatedly, our internet connection is being saturated this afternoon
by UDP packets which look suspiciously like either a DDoS or (more
likely) somebody was torrenting earlier. The high network load has
made door.sudoroom.org appear down, but it still works.

hi everyone,
the elevator was emergency locked again this morning. it is definitely a
problem to have this continue to be an issue, but we are actively working
on a solution (ie, coordinating with laurie and george to ensure that we're
on the same page regarding the elevator access control system that we
installed last week & the subsequent lack of a need to manually lock the
elevator).
thank you to everyone for their patience as we resolve these issues and
thanks to everyone who's a part …
[View More]of the ad hoc phone tree that's been
resolving the immediate access problem whenever it arises :) you guys are
awesome!

What is the policy for bringing a few boxes of really cool junk in. I'm
talking routers, chumbys cell phone boosters.
i just moved and i cleaned a lot of stuff out and i'd love to offer it to
people who would hack on it instead of dumping it at salvation army.
let me know!
Hi Folks,
It's that time again! I'll be firing up (after a bit of plumbing rework) the beer machine V2.0, doing some RGB LED control using accelerometers, and maybe a few other tidbits here and there. All level users welcome - I can't find the programmer I use for the scratch-build boards so won't be providing any components for those. If you're just starting out and need something to tinker with, there will probably be an extra controller or two on hand you can borrow, or if you want one …
[View More]to take home you can pick one up at radio shack by OG plaza last minute.
FB event if you want to add yourself to a headcount:
https://www.facebook.com/events/413697925410278
And feel free to invite people using this tool - I'm a bit sleepy at the moment so I only invited a few.
Important: Several other events have subsequently been scheduled for this night. Please be conscientious when setting up and help keep the place clean over the course of the event.
Hope to see y'all there,
Hol
