Happy Bay Area Bike Week! Free coffee on Wednesday for those who join up on San Jose Bike Train.

Remember, San Jose Bike Train runs this Wednesday morning, May 7, 2014 at 8 AM from San Jose Diridon Station this week. Yes, this is on the day before Bike to Work Day for the San Francisco Bay Area. Stay tuned for information on a special Bike to Work Day Bike Train.

San Jose Bike Train runs on the first and third Thursday of each month. This means our next scheduled ride departs Diridon Station next Wednesday, February 19, 2014.

We’ve changed the start time to 8 AM. If you’re on your way to join in but are running late, please either leave a comment on the Facebook event page and we’ll hold the train for up to 20 minutes as we enjoy our coffees at Bel Bacio Caffe in San Jose’s Little Italy.

San Jose Bike Train is an inclusive, slow pace social ride designed specifically to encourage newcomers to ride their bikes to work. Dress for the weather but I assure you the uber-athletic look are completely optional.

This train goes north along the Guadalupe River Trail, an absolutely wonderful bikeway serving destinations along the Guadalupe Parkway / North 1st Street Corridor. If you work near 1st Street along Hedding Street, SJC Airport / Technology Drive, Montague Expressway, River Oaks, or Tasman, this ride is for you. I also make my way over to the Oracle Agnew Campus in Santa Clara from this train.
