09 Jul '15

CVC RIDE PREVIEW July 11-July 16 -RIDES FOR THIS WEEK- It is the individual cyclist’s responsibility to know the route, either by printed out route slip, or downloaded to their GPS. Saturday: 9am at Leo Carrillo State Beach Coastal Coffee Away Ride: Red, Orange, Gold-Leaders: Jerry Scott, Jim Doane, Chris Armstrong, Cam Young Route link: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/5179515 <http://ridewithgps.com/routes/5179515> Ride stats: 69 miles, a Metric Century (plus a little more), 1100 feet elevation mostly on the coast highway rollers. This will be a combination ride and we will all start out together. As the ride progresses, the ride leaders will spread out along the route according to their prospective groups. Since this is a longer ride than usual, and new territory for some, we will do our best to insure all riders have a fun and safe ride and be in contact with one another. We will be seeing the coast, farm fields, suburbia, and marinas. There is a Wienerschnitzel that we can get water at about 21 miles (noted on route slip) and at Emma Wood on the turnaround before heading to The Sandbox Coffeehouse (noted on route slip). For those who choose not to do the entire route, there is a Starbucks at about mile 22 (noted on route slip) if you’d like to get coffee and snacks before turning around. For those wanting to do a full Century, check in with Jerry Scott at the ride start. Ride start location link: Leo Carrillo <https://www.google.com/maps/place/Leo+Carrillo+State+Park/@34.0452545,-118.…> Parking at start: There is free parking on PCH, but make sure it’s not in the red. The paint may be pretty faded, but it’s still considered “No Parking”. There is all day parking in the lots right off PCH. I think it’s a $12 charge so bring cash. We will group for the start in the closest lot. Westlake local Rides: 8:30am at The Landing Parking lot There are no club rides scheduled at this location. For those wanting to stay local, cyclists will need to organize themselves. A suggestion is a route through Hidden Valley, over and around Dos Vientos.
