My morning bicycle commute from San Jose to Menlo Park via historic El Camino Real. I normally don't use this route, but I wanted to see how I compared against the #22 and #522 VTA buses. 7 minutes. www.cyclelicio.us

  • 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)

  • ever hear of a sidewalk?

  • Yeah sure. Do you drive on sidewalks?

    Side WALKs are for WALKing on.

see all

  • 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!!!

  • Thank You!

  • ohlol and you rode right past my office haha

  • 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.
