Question of the week: Should I wear my CVC jersey on Saturday? Seems a silly question, but I notice that we have a lot of riders not wearing the uniform on Saturday and Sunday group rides. Wearing our team kits helps promote the club to attract new members. If you do not have a CVC jersey, contact Sheri. Why do we need more members? Because you can’t have a group ride without a group. Show your pride in the club, attract some attention, and remember that CVC is a social club. Chat up riders as you cross paths.
Safety Tip of the Week: Watch for and Avoid Road Hazards-Be on the lookout for hazards such as potholes, broken glass, gravel, puddles, leaves, and dogs. All these hazards can cause a crash. Always ride with at least one hand on the handlebars. Save the “look, Ma, no hands!” tricks for the driveway at home. Carry books and other items in a bicycle carrier or backpack. In wet weather watch your speed as surfaces may be slippery and it will take you longer to stop.
