WEEKLY ANNOUNCEMENT

Hey CVC,

We have a great weekend forecast for riding, with temps in the 80's. But it's high summer and the heat is on. Don't forget the sunscreen and hydrate on double-time. Keep those bottles flled and drink deeply each time you take a sip.

On Saturday we have three rides. The Red Ride is heading for the Rock Store, descending Latigo, up the coast, then back up Decker and a lil foray up Lil Sycamore. The Orange Ride is heading the other direction over Mulholland, then up Stunt, over the Top of the World at Schueren, and back down Piuma. And the Gold ride will beat the heat with a "remote start" at Leo Carrillo, then head north on the PCH to Channel Islands or the Ventura Harbor and back.

On Sunday we've got three ride options as well. The Red Ride is up-n-back routes on Carlisle Canyon, Lake Sherwood and Lake Malibu. The G.O. ride is doing a park roundup with Dos Vientos, Ventu, Wildwood and Chesboro. And the social ride will do a lake lap before heading through Lost Hills and Mulholland to Lake Malibu, with a return down Cornell.

We've also got midweek rides Tuesday and Thursday mornings and evenings, including the our famous Rock Store Race Ride (with moderately-paced options), our wildly fun Thursday night Pub Ride and destination rides Tuesday and Thursday mornings.

When riding with your groups, please be very verbal and watch for debris in the bike lanes. Always warn riders behind you of everything approaching! You are their eyes when you are on the front.

Our Purple and Newcomer rides are getting a good turn-out. Please help spread the word and bring friends! Our next Purple ride is scheduled for Saturday, July 1st. We can also put together a Purple ride anytime. Contact me or Sheri. Come join us and bring family and friends.

Let me know if I can help with anything bike or ride-related. I always have extra gear, nutrition, supplies and my toolbox, pump, etc.

And let's ride!

Please remember when parking at The Landing for any weekend morning rides to park and congregate towards the far end of the lot away from the street and use the middle row. Do not park next to the homes.

ADDITIONAL NOTES

The Purple ride is considered a no drop. Having said that, please note that if you are falling behind or slower than the average pace, you may be dropped. All rides not asterisked are considered a "drop ride" so please understand the route before you start (and how to get back). If you get to a regrouping spot and no one is there, consider yourself dropped. As always, we will try to stick together and have a fun, safe ride. We will regroup regularly to allow everyone a chance to ride together.

If for any reason you leave a group ride, please pass along the information to the ride leader.

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.
