*CVC RIDE PREVIEW* December 24-December 30 MERRY XMAS EVERYONE!!! Let's remember that during the holidays there are extra cars on the road and they are thinking about where they are going, who they will see when they get there, and what they are doing next. THEY ARE NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO CYCLISTS. Please keep your head on a swivel and pay extra attention to autos. *- THE RIDES -* *Saturday:* *Red Ride - Leader TBARoute link: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/3571927 <http://ridewithgps.com/routes/3571927>* *Orange / Gold Rides - Leaders TBA* *Route link: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/4689896 <http://ridewithgps.com/routes/4689896>Purple Ride (RSVP ride only) - Leader TBARoute: Follows Gold and turns back early* *Sunday:* *Red / G.O.

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. It is mandatory to have & wear a helmet. It is the rider's responsibility to ensure that the helmet is in good condition (check expiration on helmet inner tag) and that your bike is in working condition as well. Henry Montalvo President Conejo Valley Cyclists 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.
