The Funk Zone is the district of breweries, tasting rooms, galleries and restaurants beside lower State Street, on the beach side of Highway 101. It sits on a handful of short streets: Yanonali Street, Mason Street, Helena Avenue and Gray Avenue, with Garden Street on its east side. The railroad runs through it, crossing State Street just below Yanonali Street and Garden Street just above Cabrillo Boulevard, and the Amtrak station is on lower State Street. The beach is a short walk away.

It is a place where people park once and walk for hours, which is exactly how keys disappear. A key set down on a bar top, dropped under a patio table or left in a jacket at the last stop is the usual story. We work only on motorcycles and scooters and come to the bike to cut a new key, program it if the bike has an immobilizer, pull a broken key or repair the ignition or seat lock. You will need photo ID and the registration or title when we arrive.

## Where bikes end up parked

Curb limits inside the Funk Zone are posted block by block, so the sign nearest your bike is what counts. The off-street choices are easier to describe to us over the phone.

- The Helena Avenue lots, city self-service lots in the middle of the district where you pay by the space instead of pulling a gate ticket.
- Lot 13, the Depot lot at the Amtrak station on lower State Street, which has its own daily rate for people with a train or bus ticket.
- The Garden Street lot off Cabrillo Boulevard, a Waterfront self-pay lot on the east side of the district.
- Lot 12 on West Gutierrez Street and Lot 11 on lower Anacapa Street, the nearest gated downtown lots on the other side of the freeway.

## Leaving a bike overnight

Riders who decide not to ride home often leave the bike and come back in the morning to find the key is not in any pocket. Before you leave it, check what the space allows. The city says its Helena lots charge around the clock, and the Waterfront self-pay lots, including Garden Street, operate from 8 in the morning to 10 at night. The Depot lot is the one downtown lot the city exempts from its 72 hour tow rule.

A bike on private property is a different matter. Businesses and hotels here have their own lots with their own towing signs. If yours is in one, tell the business what happened so the bike is not treated as abandoned.

## Local notes for Funk Zone riders

- Retrace the tasting rooms before you call. A key sitting behind a bar in a lost and found saves you the cost of a new one.
- Tell us which side of the railroad tracks the bike is on. The rail line cuts through the district and can only be crossed at the street crossings.
- If the bike is on a soft or sloped surface, do not try to roll it with the steering locked.

## Funk Zone motorcycle key FAQ

### I took the train and left my motorcycle in the Depot lot. The key did not come home with me. Can you meet me there?

Yes. Tell us when your train gets in and where in Lot 13 the bike is. We need you there in person with photo ID and the registration or title before a key can be made.

### I have been drinking and should not ride. Can you still make the key tonight?

We can make the key so the bike is not stranded, but please do not ride it. Arrange a ride home and collect the bike when you are sober. Check the posted hours and overnight rules for the space it is in.

### My key fell through a deck or grate and I can see it but not reach it. Is a new key the only option?

If the business cannot recover it, yes. A new key is cut to fit the lock on your bike, and a chip key is then programmed to the immobilizer.

### Can you make a second key at the same visit?

Yes, and it is the sensible time to do it, since the bike and the key information are already in front of us. A spare kept at home is what prevents the next call.
