From Citi Bank we'll get over to Agoura Rd the usual way, out the back door of the center right on Townsgate, right on Lake View and turn left onto Agoura Rd. Then head to Kanan Rd and the first regroup on the far side of the intersection (please stay out of the road at any regroup). Carry on to a right on Malibu Hills just past the sheriff's bunker another right onto Calabasas Hills and right again on Lost Hills. Stop and regoup at De Anza Park and take care of... well whatever. Once we are ready do an about face and trace our way back to the start.  Now park the bikes away and let's drink coffee and swap lies.

NOW FOR ALL THE OFFICIAL STUFF...

Purple Ride Info: This is the easiest of the CVC group rides based on lower mileage, a slower average pace and less hill climbing, unless of course the read leader is in a bad mood and wants to torture all the beginners, ok just kidding. Although it is called a beginner recreation ride, there is a minimal amount of fitness required to maintain the 12-13 mph average pace. If you can average 15mph for two laps 'round The Lake (Westlake) you are there but you must promise not to make fun of the ride leader if you drop them. Routes vary in length from 12 to 25 miles with a maximum of 1500 feet of climbing. We do our best to ensure no one gets dropped on this ride by having frequent regroups. Ride leaders can almost always use an extra volunteer (slave) to help the ride leader. If you are a fit rider using the Purple ride as an active rest ride be aware this will be active rest with the emphasis on s-l-o-w, be patient and keep the pace down, try something completely different, stay with the group, share some of your knowledge with the newbies and help 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. See all the British memebers will still be there astonished that nobody else is riding what with the weather being so jolly.
 
After the ride, please join us at one of the many refueling options available at the finish such as Natural Cafe, Sea Casa, East Coast Bagel, Sprouts Market, etc.. This is the time to brag and tell lies about what you did on the ride, a time honored tradition.

Please remember to park in the area along Westlake Bl.(between the street and the first driveway aisle) and not in the area in front of the Shops/Market. If we don't respect the requests of the lease tenants, we could be asked to park elsewhere.
