Hi all,
After last year's incident with my tires getting slashed, I'm
really hoping I can do without a car during this year's DConf.
How feasible is this?
I'll be staying at Aloft. Would be great if there's someone I
can share a ride with. I've also seen there's a public bus
going more or less to FB and back, so I should be good there.
(Right?)
But how about getting to SFO or down town? Am I causing myself
a whole lot of pain (albeit of a different kind) by not renting
a car? To be clear, I'm not looking for an economical option,
just peace of mind.

I'm wondering about this myself.
My current plan to get from SFO to the Aloft is via BART (SFO ->
Balboa Park -> Bay Fair -> Freemont) and then take a bus or a
taxi from Freemont to the hotel.
It looks like one could take bus 200 from the Aloft to the
Ardenwood Park-and-ride, transfer to bus DB, and cross the bridge
to Facebook.
But, thinking about it a little more, a car is starting to look
pretty good.
