Desperate for help for Ride of Silence!
by Sheri L 16 May '23

16 May '23

Hi All, We are in need of ONE volunteer for this event. Please help out or a family member can come help! We need just one person to stay with our PA system as Kent cannot put it away before the ride takes off as we all start together with a formal send off from the TOPD. Please let me know if you or a family member can come help out tomorrow during the ride. Bring your phone, watch videos, but watch our PA system. A teenager can do this. Please let me know ASAP. Thank you, -- Sheri

Ride of Silence-THIS WEDNESDAY!
by Sheri L 14 May '23

14 May '23

Dear CVC, Your club, CVC, along with the City of Thousand Oaks, and Pedago Electric Bikes will be hosting the local Ride of Silence. Let's bring awareness to the drivers of the Conejo Valley, stressing the importance of motor vehicles being cautious and patient with cyclists. This is a *NATION WIDE* event: Riders all over the world will participate in a ride of silence on May 17th. Please come show your support at our local level for cyclists all over the globe, for those you know who have had an accident and remembering and honoring the many hundreds of people we have lost in this world due to cars. This ride will allow us as cyclists, to bring attention to the drivers, and city officials to create a safer environment for all of us. This year, we have a special speaker, Damian Kevitt, who was personally affected by tragedy on the road. He was dragged under a car 1/4 of a mile down Interstate 5 and not only miraculously survived, but still rides, despite his massive physical challenges. He will share his story with us as he fights for Safe Streets For Everyone. Thank you for coming and riding slowly to show your support to all those hit and killed on the road. All level riders are invited. This will be a slow moving ride, as we ride in procession through our city streets. Sheri Leiken CVC President [image: ride of silence.png]
