Can someone give me directions? I suppose the park is listed in my GPS, but just in case. And meeting time?

Well, if we do Hamilton up & back from Alum Rock, we can start a little later - how about 8 am?
Hopefully that would still give dachsund plenty of time for her afternoon commitments.
The entrance to Alum Rock Park is at the end of Peneticia Creek Road in San Jose. There is a lot just before the toll gate where you can park for free. Hopefully it won't be filled up before 8 am. If it is, you'll either have to pay to enter to park inside the park, or find a place to park in the nearby neighborhood.
Directions from points north:
Take I-680 South to the Berryessa Rd exit, head east on Berryessa, turn right on Piedmont Rd, left on Peneticia Creek Road, and keep following that road until you reach Alum Rock Park.
So, meet at the parking lot at the entrance to Alum Rock Park at 8 am?
BTW, LeeBob will be joining us. Hope that's OK...

Will there be pizza after?
I don't mind going if a lunch is provided. But I must be fed.

someone say pizza?
Excellent idea!
I propose Mission Pizza (off I-680 at Washington Blvd in Fremont) unless anyone has another suggestion.

I guess as I'm technically the one who got the discussion going, I'd better come back out of lurk mode and join y'all!! I originally was thinking that I was in no shape to ride the whole loop, but now that it's shorter, I know I can handle it.
I'm looking forward to meeting y'all!!!
