CVC RIDE PREVIEW September 5 to September 10 -RIDE START TIME CHANGE- Saturday rides are now starting at 7:30am, Sunday at 8am. We are planning to revert to the original start time, 8:30-Saturday, 9-Sunday, the week after the Away Ride barring another heat wave. -COMING UP- Next Week's Away Ride Saturday, September 12 A coastal Santa Barbara ride starting in Summerland. Free parking and a couple of great places to finish off with food and refreshments. We did this ride last year, (thank you John Caffrey) and everyone had a good time. -THE WEEKLY RIDES- Remember to ride single file, or two by two, not swarming all over the place! This not only ensures safety but makes for a good looking group of cyclists. It is the individual cyclist’s responsibility to know the route, either by printed out route slip, or downloaded to their GPS.

Do not park next to the homes. ** This is considered a "no drop" ride. The ride leader will keep an eye on everyone. No one is left behind. All rides not asterisked are considered a "drop ride" so please understand the route before you start (and how to get back). If you get to a regrouping spot and no one is there, consider yourself dropped. As always we will try to stick together & have a fun safe ride. We will regroup regularly to allow everyone a chance to ride together. If for any reason you leave a group ride, please pass along the information to the ride leader. It is mandatory to have & wear a helmet. It is the rider's responsibility to ensure that the helmet is in good condition (check expiration on helmet inner tag) and that your bike is in working condition as well. That’s all for now, folks. Have a great week!
