I am seeing more families get on the bike and go to Aqui for mexican food, but in general it is sad how few people get on a bike for the mile or so trip to downtown (I'm at Lincoln and Pine)

The owner of Willow Glen bikes is dutch...so he kind of had to bring these in..... the models I saw were "old dutch" and "personal bike" the batavus site http://usa.batavus.com/

Bascom and Hamilton....how was ebay?
Heh. Actually I was working PT at Home Depot in sales for Trane while in school.

I think San Jose is spread out a lot/could use a stronger biking network, but at least it is nice and flat to ride on for the most part. The LG trail is pretty decent to. The drivers on the other hand...

Wish they would do "something" with downtown. there seems so little incentive to go there during the day. At night they have all the auto cruisers on weekends acting all obnoxious.
