Thanks for the pics. I think I might hit route 130 this weekend. What's it like? Tight? Fast? Smooth? Lined with guardrails and driveways?

Thanks

Nate, my wife's main comment was always "but it's just over there, why is it taking us so long to get there?"

If you are starting from San Jose, I would say the initial 7-8 miles is such a pleasure beautiful road ...you will love it. But after that the road gets a little rough..I mean its not dirt..but its little bumpy I would say...but you will love the twisties to the core..As you start closer to Lick observatory road starts to get very tight at times..But as I said its a true pleasure riding there. Let me remind you though as you get closer to Lick observatory you will see road getting very tight but surprisingly with no gaurdrails at all!!!! CAREFUL I live at Alum rock and this 130 is abt one miles from my house. Its this close and I love this ride as always.
I hope you will enjoy your ride too. you will love to view of the San Jose from there.. I mean it.
Ride safe!!!!!!!!
