Leaves in road

Hi Sunnyvale, I'm quite surprised by the behavior of pushing your leaves into the road. I'm bike communiting and regularly ride some of the main roads here with bike lanes, so now I have the obstacle of leaf piles. Is this what the city expects people to do with their leaves?!

Man on bicycle blocking lanes DeAnza

Hey all, is anyone aware of a man with down syndrome I assume who rides around on a bicycle, he’s deliberately blocking lanes and not letting people in cars pass, he recently made me go into a car accident while trying to avoid him as he continues to follow and block, and he laughed at me after the fact. Its very upsetting, the other party who I was hit by is also aware of this person, saying that they constantly do this around deanza blvd and wolfe multiple times on different days. If this person is constantly doing this out here, I would not feel safe and I am worried about this happening to others. Debating on writing a police report to prevent this, but at the same time I got into a car accident. Just trying to see if others have experienced this person doing this too.

Seeking Accommodation in the Bay Area

Hi,

I’m moving to the Bay Area in January 2025 and currently working as a new graduate engineer in tech. I’ve been searching for accommodation through Facebook Marketplace and groups but haven’t had much luck so far.

I’m primarily considering living in Sunnyvale. Do you have any advice or recommendations for me? Also, are there any resources you would suggest for finding roommates or apartments?

Thank you in advance!

Looking for Bay Club members

My group is ready to renew our membership but we currently have 3 open spots for Bay Club Santa Clara (with access to Fremont and Pleasanton). We're doing the annual membership so that we don't have to deal with the seasonal price increase. Message me if you're interested!

Traffic light timings changed?

Is it just me or have a lot of intersections had their traffic timings changed for the worse? I seem to be sitting at lights a lot more and they no longer are timed to traffic flows as before.

Sunnyvale Air Quality

Tis the season - for cheer and good food and gifts - and for a cheerful fire in the fireplace. That fire, however, causes air pollution both inside and outside your house. See https://patch.com/california/san-francisco/avoid-burning-wood-over-thanksgiving-air-district-requests

I am a cyclist - and every year, around this time, I see sights like the one below - low lying air pollution due to home fireplaces. So please, don't light those fireplaces - our air, esp in the evenings, has been pretty awful recently (as any dog walker can tell you).

Looking for apartments under 2k. 1 bed 1 bath.

I mean it is easy to google it or using apartments.com or zillow. But I see some have good google reviews and some don't have any. Not sure what to trust.
As a single person I am looking for a studio/ 1bed 1bath for myself. And trying to be a bit conservative in terms of budget. Thanks!!

UPDATE 1: I guess after 2 days of googling around I could not find any place at all under 2k. I mean the best I could find was 2.3k. Lol.

UPDATE 2: I will be commuting to cupertino. Places in cupertino are sky high. So I assumed nearby places would be a good bet for 2k or even 2.3k

Suspicious drone

I came across a man and woman flying a drone around my apartment complex around 11pm last night. They were walking around and drone was flying at about 20ish feet (second story height) I’ve never seen these people before either! The whole situation was very strange. I’ve heard this is a new way to pick where to burglarize so I alerted authorities.

Edit: forgot to add I saw them leave in a car w/out any plates

Emelina’s Peruvian restaurant has mold on all of their water serving bottles

We went here last night for dinner. Every single bottle had this on it. I told them and they denied that it’s mold. Super disgusting

Kids bike repair

Hi all,

I bought a 20 inch kids bike from Amazon.. The chain keeps coming off and the same with front wheel too. I think it is because Amazon/manufacturer didn't do a good job assembling the bike. Is there a place where I can get it fixed ? Since it is not a fancy bike, I am not willing to spend a lot for the repair. Where do you normally go to fix such things ?
