Please be aware of the route to allow those that need to slow the pace to meet at regroup spots. We can always regroup at the same locations allowing those that start earlier with the option to join us later. Options to extend the route could be adding the climb to the top of Piuma. The intent of our Sunday Social Ride is to maintain a pace that allows a conversation within the group of riders in close proximity. Sunday's 9:00 AM the CVC Social Ride is riding to De Anza Park, through Cold Canyon to Piuma returning on Las Virgenes to Mulholland around the lake and returning Cornell Rd. with a finishing lap around Westlake.
