Conejo Open Space Annual Trail Work Day
by Kent Koral 04 Oct '13

04 Oct '13

Hi CVC'rs On October 19th,the Conejo Open Space Conservation Agency (COSCA), CORBA, and the Santa Monica Trails Council are having the Conejo Open Space Annual Trail Work Day. The trail work area will be on the Western Plataea, an area that many of you ride and hike. The Conejo Open Space is made up of in part, the area around Space Mountain(the Los Robles Trail that runs from Westlake to Sycamore Canyon), the aforementioned Western Plateau (west of Wildwood), and some other notable areas around the Conejo Valley. Hence, I want to get as many of us together from the CVC as we can to take part in this effort. I will also be putting this out to the Conejo Mountain Bike club which also has a great deal of trail users within the ranks. Please look into making time to go out and give a little back to the trails and organizations that give us so many riding and hiking opportunities!! For more information, go to the following link. and pledge your willingness to help out. http://www.meetup.com/CORBAmtb/events/135107662/ Hope to see you on the road or trail Kent Koral President Conejo Valley Cyclists (818) 802-0826

DIRECTIONS TO RIDE START: Triunfo Canyon Rd. in Westlake Village, just west of the Dam (tennis) Club and little yacht club building.
