Spend a morning on bikes with the phenomenal members of San Jose's Citizen Conservation Corps Trail Patrol!

San José Conservation Corps and Charter School

<h3>S﻿ilicon Valley Bicycle Coalition and the San José  Conservation Corps + Charter School are partnering up for an intermediate-level ride, a creek clean-up, and food!</h3><p>This unique event will bring trail users along for a ride with front-line maintenance workers from the San José Conservation Corps, and showcase all the work that the Corps members do to sustain our trail system throughout San José. We'll also share information about the concept of a "trail hotline" that is in development - your chance to lend your thoughts to a service that allows trail users to immediately report hazards or trail conditions needing attention.</p><p>T﻿rails can be our tree-shaded havens from car-heavy streets, but they do not maintain themselves! Join us for a morning of riding along with the Corps members. Here's the gameplan:</p><ul><li>W﻿e will meet at 8:30 AM at 2650 Senter Road to load up trailers with trail maintenance gear, and hear about SJCC's Trail Work. See image below for a site access map - look for a hidden driveway right off the east side of Senter Rd. </li><li>W﻿e'll ride from 2650 Senter Rd to the Guadalupe River Trail along urban streets - please be prepared for busy streets with bike lanes. We recommend wearing high viz colors and a helmet. </li><li>Litter removal component: P﻿art of this event will include dismounting from our bikes to help clean up a trail or open space, to get a hands-on sense of the responsibilities of the Corps members. </li><li>O﻿ur route will be up to 10 miles long, and may go along both trails and city streets.</li><li>T﻿his is an intermediate-level ride.</li></ul><p>Interested in volunteering to help make this ride happen? When you get your ticket, register as a Volunteer Ride Leader to wear a vest, ride as a middle support or a sweep, and be trained in Ride Leadership. Volunteer Ride Leaders are expected to arrive no later than 8:30 AM</p>
