CVC Red Ride: Saturday, 1-26-13 (Possible Rain route - closested in)
by James Doane 23 Jan '13

23 Jan '13

Hi CVC Red Riders : As of now, the weather forecast calls for a 20% ( or maybe less) chance of rain for Sat. but shows Friday day and night at 70% (per NOAA) So if that system stalls - we might get a higher %'age on Sat. The weather will be unsettled from now until Monday however. I'm suggesting a Saturday Red Ride with maximum bail out points should we experience rain along the way: Saturday, 1-26-13 8:30 AM Citibank/Sprouts parking lot ( Westlake Blvd./Agoura/Hampshire Rd.s) Rock Store Upper Encinal Canyon Lechusa & Mulholland Little Sycamore Rd. ( to the LA/Ventura Co. line) - back down to Mulholland Hwy Descend Decker/Westlake Hidden Valley Dos Vientos loop back to Hidden Valley Hidden Valley to Westlake See you Sat. at 8:30am - hoping we have dry conditions ...... remember our... Inclement weather policy: In the interest of safety, whenever it is either actively raining or the ride route has wet roads, it is our club policy to cancel a club ride. Club members may still choose to meet and ride in these conditions; however, the ride will NOT be considered an official club ride. Jim Doane - CVC Red Ride Captain
