Hi CVCrs, Now that the Holidays are behind us, Lets get back to our regular rides. If you have been thinking about getting out on that MTB, now is a good timer to get a light, and get some beautiful winter weekday riding in.

Meet in the parking lot at the end of Moorpark Rd at 6:00 pm - Thursday we're riding in Wildwood. Meet in the parking lot at the end of Los Arboles at 6:00 pm As it is now completely dark at the start, make sure those lights are charged and ready. Most of our rides are approximately 8-15 miles and last around 1.5-2 hours. Our rides are done jointly with the Conejo Mountain Bike club (CMB). It is an intermediate paced ride and not a no-drop ride. but,lets stay together within our groups, and have a fun safe time.

Wed. Afternoon Landing Ride 3:30
by Sheri Leiken 13 Jan '14

13 Jan '14

We had a great turnout last week, and had a "blast" through Hidden Valley. Come join us this week as we go from parking lot on Lindero up through Hidden Valley, down Hidden Valley Road, and back to Agoura Rd. and then back. We will get in about 19 miles at a 15+ avg. You can turn around any time, so don't worry about keeping up, or going faster, we are all there! The wind is supposed to die down after noon time on Wednesday. IF for some reason it is horrible, of course we won't go, but otherwise, see you there!!!! Sheri Ohsheri2005(a)sbcglobal.net
