Hi All.

Registrations are now OPEN for the 4th Annual CVC Picnic & Benefit Ride, scheduled for Saturday, May 2nd.

You can find out more information by clicking HEREhttp://www.cvcbike.org/picnic--benefit-ride.html. And you can register NOW by clicking HEREhttps://www.bikereg.com/44771/CVC-Benefit-Picnic--Ride-Thousand-Oaks-CA.

Here are 7 reasons you cannot afford to miss out on this special event:

1. This is our only major Fundraiser of the year. Your participation enables CVC to perpetuate everything you enjoy as a CVC member. 2. The Picnic & Benefit Ride is a significant Member Benefit. We will only accept 200 registrations, and if last year’s demand is any indication, only CVC members will be able to attend. 3. This event raises money for Local Charities, helping us to give back and enhance the Conejo Valley and the Cycling community. 4. This is an opportunity for everyone to celebrate all the goodness, camaraderie and friendship that CVC inspires. 5. Included in your registration fee is a gourmet lunch and access to the beer garden and silent auction following the ride. 6. There will be no other CVC rides scheduled on May 2nd, so what else are you going to do that day? 7. If you forget to register, you will be missing out on the most fun CVC event of the year…and you will have no idea what other members are talking about for months to come.

We will be offering three rides that day:

* A 25-mile route that wraps around the Conejo Valley, encompassing some of the most enjoyable riding terrain our community has to offer. * A 50-mile route that takes riders down to PCH and back through the Santa Monica Canyons. * A 75-mile route that expands the 50-mile challenge by adding on mileage through Moorpark and Somis.

Your minimum donation of $70 enables you to attend this spectacular event, and includes:

* A Commemorative T-shirt * Music and Festivities following the ride * A Gourmet Lunch from the Pickles & Peas Mediterranean LunchTruck * Access to The Beer Garden * Silent Auction
