Hi All,
Especially looking for some giving souls that can help marshall the Tour de
Pink Ride.
This ride helps *young* women suffering through breast cancer.
I have reached out to a few of you who I thought would be great marshalls,
or escorts, riding among these wonderful women, and often men who are
riding for corporate companies or family members.
You do NOT need to be female to marshall this ride. In fact, males are
needed. You will be leading some riders going through treatment, some
survivors who are trying to get their strength back, and many other
supporters who have put forth their time and money and energy to raise
funds to help others.
I still need a few more people to be a marshall and help lead and escort
this ride while encouraging the riders. Please contact me.
Thank you so much,
Sheri

CVC,
Just wanted to make sure you all knew of mask requirements in both
counties. If you are inside, (think of Starbucks or Pub rides) you must
enter with a mask.
Just wanted to be sure everyone remembers.
Thanks,

Greetings CVC Cyclists,
Kathy Naoum heads up the City of Thousand Oaks Bicycle Advocacy Team (BAT)
and would like feed back for the two items below. Both will benefit our
cycling safety and enjoyment.
Item #1 explains why the left turn signal going North on Westlake Blvd
(heading towards the freeway) and turning left on Triunfo Canyon Road does
not trigger for cyclists. Please send your experiences of the dangerous
and awkward situations you have encountered at the signal. Kathy's e-mail
address is knaoum(a)toaks.org.
Item #2 details new paving and road striping that will take place in
Thousand Oaks. She would like cyclists to take three quick surveys so that
she can gather as much feedback as possible. The two Newbury Park routes
have been on recent rides so we should have some fresh thoughts.
Details of lane changes:

Thank you in advance and safe riding,

Hello CVC,
HERE IS THE RIDE SCHEDULE FOR THISWEEK.
Please view and download / print yourroute.
Pub rides are scheduled on Wednesdayswith a rolling time of 5:30PM.
Sheri has and continues to send outannouncements with information for sign up.
The Flat Truth
You don’t need strong hands to changea flat without levers; it’s all about proper technique. Nylon tire levers arebetter than metal ones. If you don’t remove the instigator—thorn, glass, stone,metal shaving—from the inside of your tire, or look for a tear in your tire’ssidewall, you will flat again. And again. Perfect the art of changing a flat.No excuses.
Brake Pads
Three signs your brake pads are worn:You hear a gritty scraping sound, the grooves in the pad have all butdisappeared, or you feel stickiness when you brake. Don’t touch disc-brake padswith your fingers. The oil from your skin can decrease their braking power.
Bike Mechanic
If you’re not handy with bike repairor maintenance find a good mechanic.
Need help? Ask a fellow CVC member abouttheir favorite bike shop.

Hello Amazing CVC members!
This coming Wednesday we will have our Pub Ride coordinated by Sarah
Reznick at her famiy's home in Lake Sherwood. We will be meeting at our
normal time of 5:30, as parking is an issue we will suggest you park as
close to the corner of Lake Sherwood Drive and David lane as possible. We
will depart from there and when we return we will have Sarah's favorite
Taco cart on site to fill your bellies!
The house sits on the lake (non gated side) and has a great backyard to
chat and mingle. It’s a short walk from where you will park to the home.
*************Bring your beverage of choice* and we look forward to seeing
you all!
If your convincing enough we might be able to talk Sarah's dad into a boat
ride as well!
Please *don’t park at the house* (274 David Lane, Westlake Village) as
there is only a few spots and it’s a narrow road to get there. To cover the
taco cart Sarah is asking that you Venmo her $10 per eater, her Venmo is
@Sarah-Reznick-1
Pictures of the home below. See you all somewhere soon!
PLEASE UNDERSTAND, we need you to pay in advance. If you do not have Venmo,
please let me know and I will see what Sarah can do!
