Hey CVC’rs, Here is your virtual Zwift ride schedule for this week! We are running rides on Monday (Kent Koral) and Tuesday/Thursday (Shane Mann) from 5:30pm-7:00PM This time window allows riders some flexibility since you can now join a Zwift meetup up to 30 minutes after it has started (cool!) Monday will be in France riding the “RGV” route with Kent Koral. It will utilize the "meetup only view" function. We will NOT use the “keep everyone together” (rubber band) function on this ride, but I will keep us all together. This is a recovery ride and we will ride together at a nice easy pace with a few spicy bits here and there. This will be on Zoom. See further below for more Zoom information. https://zwiftinsider.com/routes/ Tuesday will be in Watopia riding the “Beach Island Loop” route with Shane Mann. It will utilize the "meetup only view" function and also the “keep everyone together” function. This will be on Zoom. See further below for more Zoom information. https://zwiftinsider.com/routes/ Thursday will be in New York riding the “Knickerbocker” route with Shane Mann.

For the Zoom meeting rides, make sure you download the Zoom app ahead of time. Then using the link (see below), join the zoom meeting.

by Kent Koral 10 Jan '21

10 Jan '21

Hey CVC MTBR’s, This week for the CVC 2/4 Tuesday Night ride we are going to ride the Ahmanson Ranch Loop (yeah, the fun one with the corn maze). I extended it a little further up las Virgenes canyon because it was pretty short last time. We will start from the north end of las Virgenes Road by the apartments as we did the last time. Be ready to ride at 5:30PM sharp. Make sure those lights are charged and you have your spares and water. This is not a beginner ride and a suitable (bright) lighting system is mandatory.

CVC MTB 12/22 Dos Vientos Holiday Ride
by Kent Koral 21 Dec '20

21 Dec '20

Hey CVC’rs, we’re coming up on week four and that means an MTB ride! Tuesday 12/22, we are doing a fun Holiday Lights Ride in Dos Vientos. We will be riding from the Wendy and Potrero Trailhead at 5:30 PM sharp. We will ride past Satwiwa and make our way around Dos V and then take a nice tour of the neighborhood using streets and trails. Most of the ride is on fire roads and clean single track (there are a few steeper sections) and would be also suitable for gravel rigs if you are a proficient rider. Make sure you have your charged lighting system (including a taillight), helmet, water and spares. This is a novice to intermediate MTB ride (not suitable for beginners).
