Do you ride weekends only? 25 miles, 50 miles, 100+ miles per week? If Bart Z were to get out of the saddle for a sprint do you try and keep up, or pace yourself and catch him on the uphill? Do you like flat rides, hill climbs, long rides….. How do you describe yourself to non rider friends? *When riding with us:* · wear helmets and ensure your bike is in good working order · stay in bike lanes and no more than two abreast on them; single file otherwise · not overlap wheels · descend carefully!

Wed. afternoon ride
by Sheri Leiken 02 Oct '18

02 Oct '18

I did not post a ride this week due to the high probability of rain. If by chance this was just a passing cloud as usual, I will be at the Landing at 3:45. If there is sprinkles, I will not. Though I hope for rain, if we don't get it, plan on a 3:45 pm ride start from THE LANDING and we will go for a 20 mile approx. ride at a Gold + pace. If not, see you this weekend! -- Sheri

Just a guy who likes to ride his bike, and sometimes enter the “pain cave”. I have a personality defect in that I do not remember names. Don’t take it personally. Yes I have met you. Yes I know you, I just don’t remember your name. I like to joke around and have a good time. I’m a little dry and very sarcastic. I have been known at times to offend people. If I offend you, please know I did not mean to. If you have any suggestions or requests, please let me know. I will always listen. I do believe there are stupid questions; but I have been known to be stupid myself, so ask it anyway.

Wednesday Afternoon Rides Begin 3:45 PITFIRE
by Sheri Leiken 23 Sep '18

23 Sep '18

It's time again for the Wednesday afternoon rides! My goal is that every Wednesday afternoon we meet at the landing for an afternoon ride similar to the pub ride without the pub, (though not saying that can't happen!) These rides will range from 18-22 miles and are a good option for a weekday afternoon spin for those of us who can't get out in the morning. Let's start this week with a ride through North Ranch, ( to Lakeview, up westlake, down Kanan and return on Agoura Rd.) We will discuss specifics then. *We will leave at 3:45 this week and we will leave from PITFIRE PIZZA in Westlake. (Gelson's area) . * Let's try that this time and see how it goes. -- Sheri

**ride leader planning date
by Sheri Leiken 17 Sep '18

17 Sep '18

It's me again! Taylor has said that he is available to meet and have a ride meeting on the 29th of Sept. instead of the 24th on a Monday evening if that is a better time. It would be a Saturday afternoon after the ride. We would plan a 1:00 or 1:30 pm meet time. Does that work better? We want to try and get as many people there that we can. Please send me your feedback before we commit. Once I get feedback, I will let you know. This is for all current and future and sub ride leaders. We want to keep this to an hour. -- Sheri
