Place to see: BYOBW, San Francisco, California, United States

About this place:

Every Easter Sunday thousands of people race Big Wheels down Vermont Street between 19th and 21st streets. This true San Francisco experience started when musician Jon Brumit found a Big Wheel in the city dump while recording sounds and deciding that he needed to race it. He showed up at famous Lombard Street and began what has become an annual tradition. The event has grown exponentially and has moved to Vermont Street The actual crookedest street. There is no entry fee, no place to sign up and no official rules(though they would prefer that you only race vehicles designed for children with plastic wheels, not rubber ones). Show up with a big wheel and a helmet and race.
