Hey CVC,Some spectacular "away rides" planned this weekend!
There will be NO local rides. All groups will be meeting on the old Santa Claus Lane, or Padaro Lane as it is now called, (In Summerland). Please click on the map and bring close. You will see.
It has been cautioned that there is NO WATER when climbing Gibraltar, so please come prepared and have your mask on at the start. Have routes printed or downloaded in case you are lost. These are "drop" rides though the ride leaders will be looking out for you, if you cannot keep up, be prepared to finish on your own. Please choose route accordingly.
Also want to remind you that we have until the end of the month, about 10 days, to order club clothing. After that the store will be closed.
Your team store is live and ready for orders! To get started just share the below link with individuals you would like to give access to the store. That's it! *Members/Customers who wish to sign in to an account they created must go to the ABOVE link or directly to teamstore.ascendsportswear.com.
Here are the routes for the weekend.
As a reminder, we will meet at 8:30 for the AWAY ride.
AND..... 8:30 on Sundays at the Landing, both WITH YOUR MASK ON!
Once we leave the cluster of walkers around the lake, you are welcome to continue to wear it or not.
