Weekday Afternoon Ride is Back! 3:30 Landing
by Sheri L 19 Apr '21

19 Apr '21

Hey All, After the hiatus, the afternoon rides are back! Not to be confusing, but.... right now, we are aiming for Wednesdays.... if you feel Thursday is better, please send me a little email,(and we will try it next week) Let's meet THIS WEDNESDAY at the Landing at 3:30! The ride will be about 20-25 miles. Same pace as Sunday Funday ride. This is perfect for those who want to be home for dinner and yet get out there and have a nice mid week stretch but can't make it out early. The rides vary like the wind... literally.... Spring Afternoons can get windy, so we take the routes with the least wind. Come on out and have some mid week fun as we spring through the streets! Pub Rides begin in June. -- Sheri

CVC Thurs MTB-Ladies Night
by Kent Koral 15 Apr '21

15 Apr '21

Hey CVCrs, we had to cancel last weeks Thursday MTB ride due to my stupidity (according to the CVC president...aka my wife)😂 But this week (4/15)we’re going to do something very cool. It’s ladies night!! Yes, guys will be tolerated..🙄 Our own Donna, and Ali will be leading the ride in Sycamore Canyon. This is a great opportunity for both MTB and Gravel riders since the route is fairly tame. A few easy technical sections but nothing major. Look for the route and start information in Richards announcement on Wednesday! Probably a good idea if you have a light for back up to bring it, in case we get cut out just a little after sunset. If you don’t, it’s not a big deal, we can share beams! Don’t miss this one, it will be fun!! Kent

CVC Club Clothing Store opens today for 2 weeks!
by Sheri L 05 Apr '21

05 Apr '21

Hey All CVC Members, Announcing the opening of our Club Store. It will be held open for 2 weeks only beginning TODAY! Order your club kit or accessories now! Perfect for all the riding to come this year! I do not have samples, but.... these run pretty true to size compared to most cycling clothing but check their measurements for accuracy. The bibs/shorts are amazingly comfortable. For men, I would suggest going up a size in gloves and arm warmers as these are unisex sizes. Most of our riders have been going with the Volare Elite style. Enjoy shopping! All items will be shipped to your home. Be patient. The store closes in 2 weeks and then the orders take about 5 weeks to arrive from the store closing time. If you have any questions, please let me know. Here is your link. Your team store is live and ready for orders! Team Store Web Address: teamstore.ascendsportswear.com/store/conejo-valley-cyclists/ <https://sender12.zohoinsights.com/ocgeturl/2d6f.327230a?l=6fa0db50-9613-11e…> *Members/Customers who wish to sign in to an account they created must go to the ABOVE link or directly to teamstore.ascendsportswear.com <https://sender12.zohoinsights.com/ocgeturl/2d6f.327230a?l=6fa0db51-9613-11e…> . -- Sheri Leiken CVC President

Reminder-Saturday’s Presidential Away Ride- Los Olivos
by Kent Koral 26 Mar '21

26 Mar '21

Hi CVC'rs, This Saturday 3/27/21 we are having a special away ride opportunity, The CVC Presidential Birthday away ride. Washington? Lincoln? Nope...Leiken! For those that have not ridden the area, it is the home of the well known Solvang Century and also the winter locale of many pro teams and a favorite of tour companies! You will be riding past famous wineries, beautiful estates, and gorgeous ranches in a stunning mediterranean setting (think Tuscany!) Here is our game plan: Park in downtown Los Olivos (anywhere near the corner of Grand Ave and Alamo Pintado, (the intersection with the flagpole in the middle). There is street parking all around town, and it's a small town. We will ride from The Corner House Cafe, one block east of the Flagpole intersection at 9:30 am (we are starting 30 minutes later than our usual away start time due to the extra travel time). We have 3 routes that you will get to choose from: A Gold level ride that takes in the sights around the area and rides through the beautiful wine country of the Santa Ynez Valley. An Orange Light level ride that is similar to Gold but with an additional run into Happy Canyon. We also have a R/O level route that tours the above mentioned wine country and then tackles the famous and picturesque Figueroa Mountain! When you finish, there are many food establishments to choose from to get lunch and a glass of wine (or beer, or whatever). One of the standouts is where we started, The Corner Cafe ( https://www.cornerhouselosolivos.com ), they have many different food options to choose from along with beer and wine. Since we will be returning at all different times, get with your ridemates and enjoy the post ride food options in town (just as we do when we ride from the Garden Market at Santa Claus Lane). A couple of other tidbits of information are that there is a public restrooms right in the center of town, and there are also a lot of very cool local tasting rooms right in town and wineries to visit very nearby if you’re interested. It would also be a good idea to bring a lawn chair. Don't miss this chance to visit quant Los Olivos, and the opportunity to ride and enjoy a beautiful area. You can see all the routes in this weeks ride announcement. Looking forward to seeing you all this Saturday! Kent.
