For CVC'rs, longer ride is between a "gold" and "orange" level. No drops. I wait for the slowest rider. RIDE START: Triunfo Road just west of the Dam (tennis) Club and little yacht club building in Westlake Village. (From the 101 Fwy, take Lindero Cyn. south until it ends at Triunfo. Go right on Triunfo a couple hundred yards...where there's grass, sidewalk, the lake...and park along the curb.) TIME: Those wishing to get in ~20 miles, 5:30, ready to ride. Those just going around the lake can show up at any time. PICNIC: After riding - picnic starts around 7:00 p.m. (where the cars are parked). WHAT TO BRING: HELMET AND BIKE! For picnic, bring something to share (cheese, crackers, fruit, olives, pretzels, cookies, whatever...), a beverage (and something to drink it in if you don't want to drink out of the bottle), something to SIT on and a warm jacket. Also bring any friends, neighbors, relatives, S.O.'s and anyone else who might like to join us (preferably with bikes). Don't forget spare tubes, water bottles, etc. ROUTES: Longer ride: Routes will include Hidden Valley, Lake Malibou, North Ranch, and wherever. Around the lake: cruise around the lake in wide bike lanes...no left turns...~5 miles each loop...all flat, no discernible hills. If you wish to be removed from this e-mail list (unless you're getting the notice from CVC), please let me know. Also, feel free to pass the information on to friends, family and S.O's. Everyone is welcome. Jan Grant

Tuesday after-ride BBQ & socializing idea
by Jim Doane 15 Jun '11

15 Jun '11

Hi Tuesday PM riders & other interested CVC members: As I announced at the beginning of our ride and at the top of Rock Store last night, since we've been having such a good turn out of current and new CVC members and friends, we have an idea of getting together for an after ride (about 7:30pm) BBQ & socializing. This will be a nice opportunity to get to know each other, futher our friendships and/or share training strategies and riding techniques. BBQ grill, meats & paper goods will be supplied We'd ask that you bring your own beverage and some other item (salad, hors'd'oeuvers or dessert item or etc.) to share We'd like to hold our first event Tuesday, 6-21 7:30pm in Westlake right after our Rock Store/Upper Encinal ride. Please RSVP to me ASAP if you are interested so that I can have a count to plan for the food items. This invitation is open to CVC members & guests - (in addition to the Tuesday night Rock Store riders) When you answer back to me hit "reply" ( NOT: "reply all") and I will answer any questions about party logistics, time and place. We can make this a regular, fun & interesting event depending on your interest & support. Jim Doane - CVC Sec/Red Ride Leader

CVC Sunday Social / Recovery Ride -- Sunday June 12th - 9:00am
by Adam Winer 09 Jun '11

09 Jun '11

CVC Sunday Social / Recovery Ride -- Sunday June 12th - 9:00am Meeting at Citibank Parking Lot - Westlake Village -- Westlake Blvd. & Agoura Road (North East Corner) Hidden Valley / Green Meadow MUP Route Come out and join us for a social paced recovery ride (14 Mph Average Speed/Pace). 30 miles maximum and stay a while to socialize afterwards by having an after-ride beverage and snack. Please remember this is a social paced recovery ride and while that may mean slightly different paces for different people, I attempt to keep the group together as a whole on these rides. The theory is to recover from our Saturday training rides and socialize. Off we will go through Hidden Valley and climb up the hill to Treasure Hill Ranch. A quick descent to a right on Reino Drive where we then take Lynn Road to Green Meadow Drive and cut though the well hidden Multi Use Path behind the Los Robles Golf Course which runs us out on to Moorpark Road. Down Moorpark Road and up our new favorite hill, Las Padres Drive which connects un into the surgical center on Halland Drive which parallels the 101 FWY to Rancho Road. From there up Rancho Road to La Granada Drive where it connects to Conejo School Road. Down Conejo School Road through a few more lightly traveled residential streets and back. After ride socializing - Natural Cafe' Restaurant - Patio and/or front grassy courtyard area. Many options at this location for beverage and food establishments.　 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 a 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. ------ Adam Winer socialride(a)cvcbike.org
