[Conejo Valley Cyclists] Saturdays rides start at the Landing and Sundays at Starbucks This week's Safety Message: A Road ID bracelet is one of the simplest pieces of gear you can wear, but it can make a huge difference if something happens while you're out riding alone or with a group. > * If you're in an accident and can't speak for yourself, first responders know who you are right away. > * Your loved ones can be reached quickly, which speeds up communication and reduces confusion. > * Medical info like allergies, conditions (e.g., asthma, diabetes), or medications can be lifesaving details for EMS. > * You (and your family) ride with more confidence knowing that if something happens, critical info is available. > * Often, we ride with people who don't know our personal details, they can still help first responders by pointing them to our bracelet. > https://www.roadid.com/ offers several options from $25-$40. > > At the very least you should set up your medical info and emergency contacts on your Phone or Android. Anyone can unlock your phone to retrieve this info. For iPhone Hold Side + Volume to get to emergency info. For Android, swipe up for emergency info.

[Conejo Valley Cyclists] Saturdays rides start at the Landing and Sundays at Starbucks This week's Safety Message: How Safe Is Your Helmet? Did you know that most helmet manufacturers, and cycling safety organizations, suggest replacing your bike helmet every 3 to 5 years if it hasn't been in a crash? Most cyclists shopping for a helmet make their decision based on comfort, fit or aesthetics without much emphasis on how effective the helmet actually protects the cyclists. All helmets sold in the US require certification based on standards set by the Consumer Products Safety Commission. There are a number of proprietary safety technologies out there that are incorporated into helmets, the most well-known being MIPS (designed to minimize rotational impact forces) and WaveCell (designed to reduce linear impact). Before you make your next purchase, we recommend you check the Virginia Tech safety ratings in the link below. Virginia Tech has tested 277 helmets in the lab and has issued a comparative safety rating based on the determination of concussion risk. Interestingly, there does not seem to be a correlation between safety and price. https://www.helmet.beam.vt.edu/bicycle-helmet-ratings.html CVC Biweekly Social MTB, August @ 5:30pm Location: Ride Leader Route Miles Climb (ft.)
