Best route from SJSU to Cupertino?

Google bike directions gives what seems a reasonable route. I've ridden Newhall, but it's a bit narrow; this goes to neighborhood streets to avoid that. And it uses a bike connector near Infinite Loop, too.

That "hole" in the bikeways is pretty lame. Something for SVBC to help us help our officials remedy.

If you want to include transit, I recommend the #23 bus (slowish but comes within walking distance of most Apple buildings) or the #522 (faster but further away).

I live midway between and bike to both locations regularly. To avoid streets like the Alameda and even Naglee, here's the route I would recommend (I rode Pruneridge for years until I found Forbes):

There are a few obvious things you can do with it to exchange twists and turns or distance for time on busier streets. One thing I do (not on the map) to avoid the bridge at the end on Blaney:
- take Homestead to Sunnyvale-Saratoga (same an De Anza Blvd)
- make like a left turn
- use the crosswalk and take the sidewalk towards 280
- I walk my bike in the crosswalks across the ramps

If you really dislike riding with cars, there's a crazy "Perimeter Dr" you can take back by Valco which actually goes under Wolfe.
