Cycling in Cupertino - Parker Ranch Trail

Total about 3k, very good exercise.


On the way back, I took S Stelling Rd north, passing the Jollyman Park (below). Then McCellan Rd east and back on S Blaney home.

This route avoids the traffic, and there are bike lanes in most parts. The route total 14.5km, 120m total ascent. You can pick up grocery if you want.
