CVC Ride Preview-May 28, 2015
CVC RIDE PREVIEW May 30-April 4
"Stopping!" ..... With everyone in a group coming to a full stop, there is a domino effect of the back end having to hammer it in order to catch up. So, for those in front, please soft pedal until the entire group has come through and re-joined.
-COMING UP-
Several things on the horizon!
Gravel Ride-New Sunday, June 7, 9am in Dos Vientos Inaugural ride will be Sycamore Canyon to the beach and back. A little road, a little dirt, lots of fun. Put some tread or knobbies on your road bike, or use your MTB or cyclocross bike for exploring the fire roads in our 'back yard'.

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.
That’s all for now, folks. Have a great week!
