by dpssmith＠aol.com 29 Aug '13

29 Aug '13

Hi CVC Members and Guests, Our revised G.O. Ride formerly called the Sunday Social Ride is typically 35 to 45 miles long with 2,200 to 4,200 feet of climbing and an average speed of 13 to 15 mph. As usual, we will meet at the Citibank parking lot and have our pre-ride announcements promptly at 9:00 AM then splitting into our groups and departing. This Sunday it's off to Tapo Canyon via Erbes, Royal and Siquoa. Returning Erringer, Madera and Erbes. 42.5 miles. 4250 feet. For a detailed route slip go to:http://ridewithgps.com/routes/2181943 At the ride start we will announce the regroup locations. Should you decide to deviate the ride course please notify the ride leader to prevent unnecessary or lengthily wait times at regrouping locations. This is a "drop ride" meaning that if you can't keep up with the group, and/or catch up within the re-group times - you are "on your own" to know the route from previous knowledge or by following the route slip. It is possible and/or probable that members can assist others with mechanical & other rider emergencies along the route however. Our re-group spots are meant to allow a short break & a chance for riders to catch up so that the group can ride together as much as is possible. Inclement weather policy: In the interest of safety, whenever it is either actively raining or the ride route has wet roads, it is our club policy to cancel the official club ride. Club members may still choose to meet and ride in these conditions; however, the ride will not be considered an official club ride. Please remember to park in the area along Westlake Bl.(between the street and the first driveway aisle) and not in the area in front of the Shops/Market. If we don't respect the requests of the lease tenants, we could be asked to park elsewhere. Have fun and ride safe, Dale ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Correction!!!! We will stick with Sherrie's start time of 5 15! Feel better Sherrie! Sent from my Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Smartphone -------- Original message -------- From: Sherrie Felton <hatoolah(a)msn.com> Date: 08/28/2013 9:21 PM (GMT-08:00) To: Sheri Leiken <ohsheri2005(a)sbcglobal.net> Cc: CVC announcements <announce(a)mail.cvcbike.org> Subject: [cvc announce] Thursday August 29th 5:30 pm -- Gold/Orange Ride is On! Great news! Kent and Sheri will lead the ride tomorrow. ROUTE: Out-and-Back through Hidden Valley (those who want to ride a few extra miles can add the Carlisle extension). START TIME: 5:30 p.m. DISTANCE: 20 miles PACE: This is an intermediate level ride that includes both Gold and Orange paces averaging 14+/15+ mph. NO DROPS:A no drop ride means that the leader will wait ahead at strategic points/turns along the route, or sweep behind the group as needed, so nobody gets left behind. Faster riders who are familiar with the course and who prefer to ride ahead are encouraged to do so; they need not wait at regroup points. DIRECTIONS TO RIDE START: Triunfo Canyon Rd. in Westlake Village, just west of the Dam (tennis) Club and little yacht club building. From the 101 Freeway, take Lindero Canyon south until it ends at Triunfo. Go right on Triunfo a couple hundred yards. You will see a grassy area where we PICNIC after the ride. Park along the curb. Thank you Kent and Sheri!
