San Jose
I'm moving to San Jose.
Suggestions on links to rides in the area?
And what about riding after work...like at 6pm, probably not enough time to up Mt Hamilton, but where are some places people go to get a quick hour, hour and a half?

San Jose is a big city with lots of congestion and traffic, so you want to start your ride as close to home as possible. If you live near Hamilton and don't have time to make it all the way to the top, you could do the Quimby-Clayton loop. Or Sierra-Felter-Calaveras. Farther south, there's Metcalf-San Felipe. On the west side of San Jose, there is Shannon-Kennedy-Hicks.
