CVC-Weather Report for Sunday Rides

by Cameron Young

Hi all, It looks like we may get rain tonight and into the morning, but it doesn't look like much until Tuesday. So, if the roads are wet and not in the process of drying out when you wake up, consider the Sunday club rides cancelled. However, those who wish to, may meet and ride on their own. Thanks, Cam

CVC Community Event (Manna – Conejo Valley Food Bank), Saturday, November 22nd, 2014

by president＠cvcbike.org

When: 8:00-8:25 am. Where: The Landing (CVC ride start location) In the spirit of giving back to this great community we live in, CVC will be collecting from 8:00-8:25am for the “Thanksgiving for all” campaign put on every year by Manna. For more than a decade Manna has provided a holiday “care pack” containing all the fixings for a traditional Thanksgiving dinner to struggling families in the Conejo Valley. Unlike many food pantries in the area, Manna is not formally affiliated with any religious organization, nor are they federally funded in any way. In fact, Manna exists almost entirely on private donations of food and funding. More than 95% of the food Manna distributes each year is donated by organizations, businesses and individuals from around the Conejo Valley. Funding is provided through generous donors and grant writing efforts. Some Top Priority Items are… 1. Thanksgiving Pies 2. Canned White Beans 3. Chicken Broth 4. Soup - all kinds 5. Juice 6. Boxed Potatoes 7. Ramen / Cup o Noodles 8. Mayonnaise 9. Cereal- hot & cold 10. Crackers/Cookies All items will be taken and dropped off at Manna after the completion of Saturday’s rides. (@ 11a.m.). If you wish to donate but can’t make it, please visit http://www.mannaconejo.org/. Who knows, maybe you’ll be helping out the next great cyclist. Let’s Go Ride, Henry Montalvo President, CVC

Wed. Afternoon Landing Ride 3:30

by Sheri Leiken

Come on out and ride Wednesday! The sun promises to shine, and the wind will be calm, and you need a weekday spin of the legs if you have been working this week! We will be ready to ride at 3:30 from the Landing at a GOLD+ avg. of 15+, up to Hidden Valley and turning around at Hidden Valley Road. We spin fast, and enjoy our short time out there. It is far better than a spin class! We will get about 19 miles in round trip. Please let me know if you are coming so I can look for you in the lot. I will park close to the entrance. As with any other CVC ride, please arrive with water, helmet. CVC Inclement Weather Policy: In the interest of safety, whenever it is either actively raining, excessively windy, 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. This is not a "no drop" ride. Come on out and try it! See you ready to roll by 3:30! Sheri
