chillin in the hotel, pre-ride
One of the best times I had while in California was my ride with SJFixed. These guys do a couple group rides a week, and I was lucky to get in on one while I was there. San Jose is soooo nice to ride in, especially after you've been battling traffic in NYC. The roads are well taken care of and seem endless. The sun is just...different. There is barely any traffic to worry about, and there are bike lanes everywhere. I could easily get used to that.
While I was in San Jose I also checked out iMinusD. They had some serious bikes on display. Unfortunately all I had on my was my iphone. I snagged a jersey and some stickers. Definitely worth checking out the shop if you are ever there. It feels like a tight knit community out there for sure!
It was a great experience being able to ride on the left coast with some like individuals. I wish I could have got in on more rides. Next time I'm out that way I'm definitely making my trip more bike centric!
