I agree lets move this to the real crookedest street.....Vermont!!! If the sour neighbours complain, about that local,...why not Dolores srtreet at 20th astride the park!!!

Does anyone know if we need to sign up prior to the event or if we can just show up?

I'm so there. Will work on the PoHill cognoscenti to embrace! My crappy video for last year's has been viewed nearly 100K times from a little Y! Video posting: http://video.yahoo.com/watch/394325/2331810

Hey SF, c'mon over! We live around the corner, and will drag the grill over to the park at the top of the course around 3pm, for an Easter Big Wheel BBQ. Bring some meat, something to share....and of course your big wheel. See you at the starting line.
Which reminds me--I just drove the course a while ago, you'd better bring your helmet as well, as there are several places where an ill-timed slide into the wall will send you pitching out into open space....and on to the racers below. Just saying--game on!

One more thing .. elbow pads are a great idea. Moreso than knee pads in my experience. So if you have pads but only kneepads, you might want to consider wearing them on your arm-joints instead.
