Hi All, Wow, I don't know about y'all, but I ate way too much last weekend. And with all the left-overs, I'm getting sick of Turkey. Luckily we have a little reprieve before the festivities start up again (for some a very short reprieve). So, in the meantime....Lets Ride. The bike is just the ticket for those holiday indulgeneces (no, I dont mean selling it to pay the Visa bill) and to keep us in check for that holiday time chow-fest some of us (read me) love to engage in. And the road to redemption is a nice run to Topanga and back over Old Topanga. For a detailed map and route slip, go to: http://ridewithgps.com/routes/713941 As usual, we will meet at the Citibank parking lot and have our pre-ride announcements promptly at 8:30AM prior to splitting into our groups and departing. The Orange ride is an intermediate/advanced recreational ride 40 to 50 miles in length with an average pace of 15+mph. It is not a "no drop ride" but as always let's try to stick together and have a fun,safe ride. 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. 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.. 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. See you Soon, Kent Koral CVC Ride Director (818) 802-0826
