One nice thing about Santa Clara County public transit is that they take bikes on all trains, light rail and busses, so it greatly adds to versatility.
Only certain buses here are setup to take bikes. I'm trying to figure out if the one I'd potentially use is one of those buses. If it isn't then the whole thought is down the drain and I'd use my vehicle to get closer.
My vehicle is actually the smarter time choice as the bus takes way longer. The bus also doesn't leave early enough to get me to where I want to be at the time I want but I could make it work if needed.
