WEEKLY ANNOUNCEMENT
Hey CVC,
The weather looks great this weekend - with temps in the low 80s! But it's still July, so drink aggressively and don't push yourself too hard.
On Saturday we have three rides. The Red Ride is heading out Hidden Valley to drop down Potrero and the coast before returning up Yerba Buena and Lil Sycamore. The Orange Ride is riding out the same direction through HIdden Valley, but will turn inland as CSU and come back up Santa Rosa Valley. The Gold ride is doing the 3 Lakes Ride featuring Westlake, Sherwood and Lake Malibu.
On Sunday we've got three ride options as well. The Red Ride will be heading for the Rock Store, shooting down Encinal Canyon and hitting out-n-back loops on Lil Sycamore and Carlisle Canyon on the way home. The G.O. Ride is doing a ride out to Wood Ranch in Simi Valley, including Long Canyon and a challenging climb back over Erbes. And the social ride is heading up through Thousand Oaks to Wildwood Park, before looping back over Westlake Boulevard and home on Lakeview.
We've also got midweek rides on Tuesday and Thursday morning and evenings, including the our famous Rock Store Race Ride (with moderat-paced options), our wildly fun Thursday night Pub Ride and destination rides Tuesday and Thursday mornings.
When riding with your groups, please be very verbal and watch for debris in the bike lanes. Always warn riders behind you of everything approaching! You are their eyes when you are on the front. When calling out, be loud, especially around vehicles.
Our Purple and Newcomer rides are getting a good turn-out. Please help spread the word and bring friends! Our Purple rides are scheduled for the first weekend of every month. We can also put together a Purple ride anytime. We may also add Purple rides every weekend soon. Contact me or Sheri. Come join us and bring family and friends.
Let me know if I can help with anything bike or ride-related. I always have extra gear, nutrition, supplies and my toolbox, pump, etc.
And let's ride!

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 and 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.
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.

CVC Members,
CVC Board is looking for volunteers who want to be involved with the club
in a more in depth way.
We are always looking for members who want to step up and lead, whether it
be ride leadership, (from leading a purple ride once a month, to a gold,
orange, or red) to weekday ride leaders, and even those who want to step
forward and serve the club in other leadership positions that may be more
"behind the scenes). This would certainly involve a time commitment out of
the saddle.
If you are interested in serving your club in one of the leadership roles,
please contact me and let's talk about it.
Thanks so much,
Sheri Leiken
CVC President
Hi CVC Members,
As part of the CVC, you have the option to purchase club clothing. We
are changing manufacturers to Hyperthreads. We have some good pricing
and love the quality and fit. The design will remain the same with some
ever so slight changes to accommodate this manufacturer and their cut.
We will have an online store open until JULY 30th only.
This may be the last order we place this year!
Don't delay and miss this opportunity to purchase club clothing,
jerseys, vests, bibs, and shorts!
Once the store closes, there is an estimated 5 week time for
manufacturing this custom order. The clothing will be sent directly to
you.

Hi,
I hope you can attend the BAT meeting on Wednesday July 19th at 4:00 in the
Park Room.
If you can't - you can always send an interested cyclist in your place.
I've attached the draft agenda and meeting notes from the May 3rd meeting.
If you would like me to add any item to the Agenda please just drop me an
e-mail and I'll put it on the Agenda.
Of note is the Rancho Road Sidewalk Project that is also going to the
Traffic and Transportation Advisory Commission (TTAC) on the same day, at
6:00 in the Board Room. It's the first item on the TTAC Agenda and the
purpose of the item is to receive public input. You are encouraged to
attend and provide comments. This is the same project that was presented
at the last BAT meeting - but with changes based on BAT recommendations.
Have a great rest of the week and weekend.
