  • ha, I like that you basically immediately destroyed the bus. I have done the el camino a bunch of times by bike but almost always from sf to sj. I also decided to walk it to try to better understand the distance. The bus definitely beat me.

  • rode from south san francisco to the end of el camino in san jose and biked back too. just today. damn, el camino is long as fuck!

  • Go get'm, Cyclelicious!!!

  • ohlol and you rode right past my office haha

  • Hey man nice video...right now i'm commuting about 3 days a week from pacifica to menlo park...I've been taking the ECR since i'm new to the area, but its a bitch @ 5pm...know negood alternate routes?

  • You bike from Pacifica to Menlo??

    I'm not too familiar with Peninsula biking routes -- I normally keep to the South Bay.

    San Mateo County just published a new bike map that's a huge improvement over the old one. I know Redwood City has them for $1 each.

  • lol yeah its a solid 48miles round trip working on gettin up to 4 days a week.....Hmm i'm gonna have to check out that map....wats ur bike setup BTW?

  • The bike on this video is a Specialized Roubaix (triple crank - I live in the Santa Cruz mountains)

  • This looks like a good bike ad. My most expensive bike costs half as much as monthly passes throughout my biking area (VTA, SamTrans, MUNI, CalTrain all zones, AC Transit, BART, San Benito County Transit, and Santa Cruz Metro). Most of my bikes cost less than a VTA Express Monthly pass.

  • ever hear of a sidewalk?

  • Yeah sure. Do you drive on sidewalks?

    Side WALKs are for WALKing on.

  • There is no bike lane on El Camino Real.

    VTA 68, 22, and SamTrans 390 are completely within my biking range, as is Santa Cruz Metro 35, CalTrain, AC transit 99, San Benito County Transit Business District, and BART Fremont-Millbrae lines.

    El Camino is actually my favorite route for going to San Francisco.

  • Thank You!

  • Gugario, I don't normally ride on ECR. From downtown San Jose I usually take Park St. to Santa Clara, get over to Homestead which I ride to Foothills, then Foothills into Palo Alto.

    Alternate route is Central Expwy, but I don't care for that road much. Monroe to Evelyn is also popular. From Evelyn in Mountain, cyclists get over to Middlefield or California Ave then bike bridge to P.A. depending on destination.

  • Hi there! Great video! It's a shame there aren't good bike paths to go north in the South Bay. I wanted to ask how long the 20 mile commute usually takes you, and if you have any advise/comments on biking at El Camino. Thanks! And keep on riding.

  • This is a cool video, mounting the camera on the bike frame gives good perspective without wild pan and tilt like a helmet mounted camera.

    Yes, sometimes I find bikers irritating hogging the lanes but I stay out of their way. Unfortunately many car drivers don't keep a safe distance from bikes (them cars can be worst than man-eating sharks!) so be careful out there.

  • Thanks Konstantin.

    You might note, Chayme, that there are no bike lanes on ECR. If you watched the video you'll also note that I stopped at all reds and stops, nor did I cut any other vehicles off.

  • holy shit dude why be hating! leave him alone... at least he is saving the environment and athletic unlike ur fat ass! so dont talk shit about someone getting so exercise u fat ass! ANYWAY DUDE I LIVED IN MENLO PARK!! PEACE OUT MAN DONT LET THIS GUY GET U DOWN!!
