SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- We've partnered with the team at Hoodline - the hyperlocal neighborhood website to find weekend activities in and around the Bay Area.

Urban Bike Challenge

The Urban Bike Challenge by Brompton Bikes, hosted by Huckleberry Bicycles, is a two-wheeled scavenger hunt.

You'll ride through the city in teams of two or four and a mobile app will lead you to secret spots where you'll be asked to do challenges or snap pictures to rack up points.

All ages and cycling levels are welcome! Plus, it's a good way to see the city.

If you don't have a bike, there will be some to test or borrow. It's $20 to join and all proceeds benefit the San Francisco Bike Coalition.

Meet at Huckleberry Bicycles on Market Street near 7th Street on Easter Sunday at 11 a.m.

26th Annual Union Street Easter Parade & Spring Celebration

Speaking of Easter, the 26th Annual Union Street Parade & Spring Celebration is Sunday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.

It's on Union Street between Gough and Fillmore streets in Cow Hollow.

There will be entertainment, face painting, a petting zoo and the Easter Bunny will be there!

The Muni Diaries at Elbo Room

If you ride public transit, do you have a weird or funny story? You might enjoy The Muni Diaries, a live show in the Mission Saturday at 6 p.m.

It should have you laughing at all the perils of public transportation.

Speakers will include well-known San Francisco-based stand of comedian Irene Tu, who was named last year as one of the Bay Area's 11 best standup comedians.
