Leaving from the Landing, the Tuesday-Thursday ride is a 25 to 40 mile intermediate level ride (between gold and gold rush). There are very few cars out at this time and the weather is nice and cool.

04 Sep '15

Happy Monday Labor Day! Kent and I will be hosting a ride Monday morning at 8:30 to 7 Minute Hill, and back through Calabasas/Mureau Rd. Here is the route with the slight change that we will begin from the Landing and make a right turn to go around the lake first. http://ridewithgps.com/routes/247961 Start Time: 8:30 Place: Westlake Landing-Intermediate level ride with options for extensions It is the individual cyclist's responsibility to know the route, either by printed out route slip, or downloaded to their GPS. --------------------------------- Please remember when parking at The Landing for any weekend morning rides to park and congregate towards the far end of the lot away from the street and use the middle row. Do not park next to the homes. This ride is 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. 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. Sincerely, Sheri Leiken CVC Membership Director

Sunday GO Ride
by dpssmith＠aol.com 29 Aug '15

29 Aug '15

Good Afternoon Everyone, I won't be on tomorrow's GO Ride. For you hardy cyclists that are on the 8 AM GO Ride, enjoy, have fun and be safe. Please remember to stop at all stop lights and stop signs. Be sure to soft pedal until the all riders make it thru the intersections. Some of us (or at least me) need to catch up on "beauty sleep". I'll be leaving the landing at 9AM for an unofficial club ride of 30 to 35 miles at a Gold / Orange pace. Any and all are welcome. Best Regards, Dale
