Light, but one-way going downhill.  A police car passed us while we were climbing and gave us a thumbs-up in encouragement. 

Parking:
Free street parking can be found all over the neighborhood. The best thing to do is to park somewhere where you can access multiple climbs - all the streets in this area are worth attempting on your bike.
