Cycling in Campbell

Campbell to Uvas Reservoir and Back

Primary goal is to minimize number of stoplights, potentially adding 0.1 mi here and there in order to almost eliminate stops. Avoiding major roads/significant traffic is NOT a goal.   Key points: Avoid stoplight at Moorpark by using Cypress and Shearton - Cost: 0.13mi Under 280 without an interchange Stoplight at Stevens Creek/Saratoga is a little painful Use Mauricia, Redwood, and Woodhams to avoid stoplights at Kiely, Pruneridge, and Forbes. Cost: 0.16mi Stoplight at Homestead Road is virtually unavoidable Use Brookdale and Curtis to avoid stoplight at Benton. cost: 0.01mi Avoid stoplight at El Camino thanks to Lawrence overpass Left on Reed instead of Poinciana introduces one extra stoplight (Aster) which is likely to be green, but reduces trip by 0.23mi Cut through Taco Bell parking light to avoid red light at Kifer.  Cost: 0.06mi TWO stoplights at Central - Unfortunate but apparently unavoidable Total: 8 stoplights, 10.61 miles
