As #Monterey #CarWeek is coming up, the residents of Seaside CA (a city in the Monterey metro area) is asking their police department to hassle loud cars out of their city. They really, really hate the amount of cars that descend into what is otherwise a quiet coastal town every year.

My fellow car enthusiast friend put it this way: Imagine there’s a week-long tuba festival that comes into your town every year. During that week, thousands of people play the tuba on the streets all day, and late into the night. Would you like that?

Can’t really argue with that argument.

I shot a very well attended 4th of July Parade in Monterey, CA. I have some fun shots from the parade, but the ones I'm most pleased by are these face in the crowd shots I was able to get after the parade ended.

Every time I'm in a crowd, I try to get shots like this, but it's always hit or miss... mostly miss. This time, I got exceedingly lucky and very noticeable faces kept appearing out of the sea of humanity over and over again for me.

Monterey Bay Aquarium Workers United had a few major wins during the bargaining period:

FMLA: We removed exceptions so that all employees are covered creating easier qualifications for leave

Reproductive Loss Leave: Expanded to include sterilization and abortion; clarified coverage under CFRA for family-planning procedures

Bereavement Leave: Up to 5 paid days per event; expanded to include foster family, cousins, designated persons (tamily-like relations), and pets

Proud of my former coworkers

Today a local man whose family has one Rad bike and whose other bicycles are, to his great satisfaction, Tern bikes, brought this Rad news to our attention. He’s bummed they don’t have ALL Terns. https://www.bicycleretailer.com/industry-news/2026/05/12/woman-files-wrongful-death-suit-against-rad-power-bikes-after-fire-kills

That Rad news is another reason we’re grateful that two extraordinary bike industry leaders — Larry Pizzi and Dale Aguas — steered us in the right direction. Years ago Larry told us about Bosch batteries; and in 2024, Dale of @ternbicycles (which use Bosch batteries) pointed us to a #TernBicycles model very well suited to our needs, the #TernNBD. #Monterey Bay #LocalBikeShop Current eBikes assembled our Tern NBD P8i, and also provides 24 months of unlimited Standard Tune-ups + ongoing support and care.

We’re so glad to have the quality of Bosch and Tern, and also very happy with Current’s service. https://sfba.social/@bikemonterey/116644390356044137
