Hey guys,

My birthday is in 2 weeks and I want to bike from san jose to san francisco on that day. Has anyone done a route from san jose to san francisco? Or if you know the major road to take all the way down that would help as well. I'd prefer open roads but nice scenic rides through the towns would be cool.

I checked bikely.com but that site is too confusing to read...

thanks in advance!

Get the Krebs map for the bay area, there are lots of ways to go. Very worth owning. I personally would go up to skyline and ride it to pacfica, or all the way over to the ocean and then north on the PCH. but there are a bunch of too-complicated-to-explain ways if you want to stay on the bay side.

you should be able to get this at a local bike shop.
