Please make sure you are going to the right place, as some searches for Calero in GPS will route you to the reservoir boat launch ramps. That is not where we will be setup.
DO NOT GO to the Calero Park Reservoir Entrance.
Calero Park is located off McKean Road. Traveling to the park, from central San Jose, take Almaden Expressway south. Turn right onto Harry Road, then left onto McKean Road. From 101, exit on Bailey Avenue and head west until you reach McKean Road. Turn left onto McKean Road. Calero Park entrance and parking lot are on the right side 0.5 mile.

Location
City insight: San Jose
San Jose is the most populous city in the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California, and the county seat of Santa Clara County. It sits in the Santa Clara Valley on the southern shore of San Francisco Bay and was founded in 1777 as the first city in the Californias. The climate is Mediterranean, with dry, mild summers and cool, wet winters, so spring and autumn are the best seasons to race.
